Rangers youngster Aaron Lyall has agreed a new Ibrox deal after making his debut for the club against Hibs, according to reports.
The Daily Record say 19-year-old has signed a year extension that will keep him at Ibrox over the course of next season under Michael Beale.
Lyall was thrown into Scottish Premiership action in Edinburgh on Sunday as Rangers defeated their capital rivals 3-1.
The Gers B regular replaced Scotland international Ryan Jack in the middle of the park.
Lyall has come through the ranks at Rangers and has featured heavily for he B team in the Lowland League in recent times.
He also spent time on-loan at Inverness Caledonian Thistle and will likely be sent out on loan again this summer.
Meanwhile, Michael Beale hopes for better luck on the injury front at Rangers next season as he confirmed Connor Goldson is out for 10 weeks.
The 30-year-old centre-back missed the 3-1 cinch Premiership win against Hibernian at Easter Road on Sunday with a foot injury picked up in the victory over Celtic last weekend.
Beale described the mentality of his side in winning as “absolutely fantastic” after Alfredo Morelos, Glen Kamara and Scott Wright were added to a long list of absentees, with Rabbi Matondo on the bench but unable to come on.
On-loan attacker Malik Tillman is back at Bayern Munich with a hamstring problem which has ended his season while Ben Davies, Ryan Kent, Borna Barisic, Antonio Colak, Kemar Roofe, Tom Lawrence, Steven Davis and Filip Helander were also missing.
On Goldson’s absence, Beale said: “He’ll be out for about 10 weeks. He had a funny land on his foot with a couple of minutes to go last week. He wanted to play on.
“Afterwards, we’ve had it scanned and seen a specialist so he’ll probably be about six weeks where he’s got to try and stay off it and then a four-week, five-week rehab back into the start of next season.
“All going well, he’ll be available for the first game of next season, albeit he might have a slightly modified pre-season compared to the others.
“This season seems to have been the worst season ever for the club, or certainly in my times associated with the club.
“Hopefully, that’s out of the way and next season we get a clean bill of health.
“We’ll look to strengthen every area this summer. There will be some new faces in to contribute.
“I think there’s a real clarity about the way we’re playing and I’ve no doubts that come the summer we’ll be in a stronger position squad-wise and have even more clarity after a good pre-season.”
