Michael Beale sent his congratulations to Malik Tillman following his PFA Young Player of the Year win.
The Rangers loanee scooped the big prize in the young player category during the awards bash last night. He was up against Celtic duo Matt O'Riley and Liel Abada plus Albion Rovers sensation Charlie Reilly for the gong but came out on top after an excellent campaign in Glasgow.
The USA international - who has returned to Bayern Munich after a season ending injury in the Scottish Cup semi-final - was signed by Giovanni van Bronckhorst last summer and was a key player under the Dutchman before Beale took over at the helm. He remained a firm favourite of the new Ibrox boss who has been keen to take up the exclusive option to make his deal permanent.
