The trial actually began late last month, but Lang has done
enough so far to remain at Murray
Park to this day on merit
while manager Stuart McCall runs the rule over him.

Central defence is certainly a position Rangers lack depth
in, with only four recognised CB’s (McCulloch, McGregor, Mohsni & Zaliukas)
in the squad at present and a lack of consistent quality among them.

Lang has been at City his whole career, from the age of 12
onwards, and while he has not yet broken through at the senior level of his
parent club, he has represented Scotland
at both U16s and U17s level and was also called up in 2014 for the U18 squad.

It remains to be seen in due course if Lang will be joining
Rangers’ youth ranks on a permanent basis.
