Liverpool starlet Leighton Clarkson attracting interest from Rangers

Liverpool youngster Leighton Clarkson has caught the attention of Scottish club Rangers, as reports suggest they are keen on securing his services.

The 21-year-old midfielder, who made his senior debut for Liverpool in a UEFA Champions League match against FC Midtjylland in December 2020, is now the subject of interest from the Glasgow-based outfit.

Dean Jones from Give Me Sport via ECHO covers Rangers’ interest in securing Clarkson‘s services. His promising performances during his loan spell at Aberdeen last season have evidently not gone unnoticed.

The young midfielder gained valuable experience during his loan spell, featuring in 38 matches across various competitions. His consistent displays showcased his potential and highlighted his ability to adapt to the demands of senior football.

With the transfer market now open, the question arises as to whether Clarkson will return to the Scottish Premiership for another loan spell or make a permanent move to Rangers.

While Liverpool may be reluctant to part ways with one of their promising prospects, they may also recognize the importance of securing regular playing time for Clarkson’s continued growth. A loan move to a club like Rangers, where he would be exposed to high-pressure matches and European competition, could accelerate his development and prepare him for future challenges.

Ultimately, the decision regarding Clarkson’s future surely rests with Liverpool and the player himself. It is important to consider the best pathway for his career development, balancing the need for playing time with the long-term goals of both the player and the club.

Hopefully, he the player makes the best decision keeping his best interests in mind.
