Rangers star Ryan Jack delights young fan who defied odds to beat cancer with surprise meeting

Ryan Jack delighted a young Rangers fan who defied the odds to beat cancer by spending an evening with the youngster.

Back in April we told how Daven Milne, 12, was over the moon when the Ibrox star picked him out of a crowd of 50,000 Gers supporters after the side’s win against Braga in the Europa League to gift him his shirt. The schoolboy, from Newton Mearns in East Renfrewshire, was diagnosed with the very rare pleomorphic undifferentiated primitive sarcoma after his mum Tracy spotted a small lump on his neck shortly after his second birthday in January 2012.

This year he celebrated 10 years in remission and the little season ticket holder never misses a match at Ibrox. Jack, completely unaware of Daven's previous cancer battle, picked the brave youngster out of the crowd at the end of the quarter-final tie - and after being contacted by the Record, Rangers offered to arrange a meet and greet so he could get the jersey signed by his favourite player.
