Glasgow Rangers supporters may have been left frustrated by the starting XI and the performance on the opening day of the Scottish Premiership season.
The Light Blues only lined up with one new face – Connor Barron – in the team against Hearts and served up a rather dismal 0-0 draw away from Ibrox.
Philippe Clement did not have new centre-back Robin Propper available for selection but Vaclav Cerny did make an appearance off the bench, whilst Jefte was an unused substituteThere is still time for Rangers to make further additions to their playing squad, however, and one potential signing could mean bad news for Tom Lawrence.
Rangers keen on Premier League whiz
According to The Athletic, the Scottish giants are one of a number of clubs in the running to sign Liverpool central midfielder Bobby Clark on loan.
The report claims that English sides Leeds United, Sheffield United, Norwich City, and Coventry City are also providing competition for his signature on a temporary basis.Meanwhile, RB Salzburg would like to sign him on a permanent deal and have already had an offer of £6m rejected for the midfield gem, who is valued at £12m by the Premier League side.
The Light Blues showing an interest in the 19-year-old dynamo should come as bad news for Lawrence, whose place in the team could come under threat as a result.
Why this is bad news for Tom Lawrence
Todd Cantwell handing in a transfer request and being left out of the squad provided the Welsh ace with a huge chance to impress against Hearts.
Unfortunately, Lawrence did not score or assist a goal and only created one chance in the match from a number ten position. He also failed with three of his four attempted dribbles and lost 11 of his 15 duels.
