“Barry Ferguson’s Blueprint for Connor Barron’s Rangers Rise: Midfield Mentor Needed for Next Level”
Barry Ferguson has advised Rangers on how to support Connor Barron in further developing his skills. Barron joined Rangers from Aberdeen over the summer as part of Philippe Clement’s team rebuild and has already become a regular starter. Ferguson, a former Rangers captain, has been impressed with Barron’s energy and attitude on the pitch, seeing great potential in him. However, Ferguson believes that to help Barron reach his full potential, the club should bring in an experienced midfielder who can mentor him.
Barron was initially on the bench for the Premier Sports Cup last 16 match against St Johnstone but made an impact after being brought on, which Ferguson praised. He remarked on Go Radio that Barron’s performance was excellent, highlighting his eagerness to learn and improve. Ferguson is confident that Barron could become a key midfielder for Rangers.
In other news, former Rangers midfielder Ryan Jack, currently without a club, has been training with Motherwell. Jack, who was part of Scotland’s Euro 2024 squad, has yet to secure a new team. Ferguson is curious to see how this situation unfolds, noting that Rangers were a stronger side when Jack was fit and playing.
Meanwhile, reports suggest that Ianis Hagi has not requested to leave Rangers, despite not being in Philippe Clement’s plans and training with the B-team. Hagi reportedly remains determined to fight for his place at the club, leading to a potential standoff between the player and the club, as Clement appears intent on moving him on to create space and raise funds.
