Michael Beale has opened up on Leon King as he admitted the young Rangers defender is behind three senior centre-halves in the pecking order.
The youngster was thrown in at the deep end under Giovanni van Bronckhorst due to an injury crisis at the heart of the backline meaning the stopper had to play consistently in the league and Champions League against the likes of Liverpool and Napoli. The 19-year-old will benefit from those experiences in the long run with his gaffer admitting he is training really well and pushing and learning from his experienced team-mates daily.
Connor Goldson and Ben Davies are back fit and have struck up a solid partnership for Beale. John Souttar is also back fit with a cameo appearance against Kilmarnock and then minutes in the tank for the Rangers B side - a game in which Ridvan Yilmaz and King were both also involved in during the week.
