Glasgow Rangers have confirmed the sale of Ross McCrorie to Aberdeen.
It has looked for a while as if the 22-year-old may be on his way out of Ibrox this summer. He spent last season on loan at Portsmouth in English League One and, following his return to the 54-time Scottish champions, Steven Gerrard said that, as long as the right offer came in for him, he would be leaving the club in the near future.

He has now completed a switch to the Dons, who will take him on loan before signing him permanently next summer for a reported fee of £350,000.

The news of his departure has attracted plenty of reaction from ‘Gers supporters, and it is fair to say that many are far from happy with the news that he is leaving – given that he is valued at £810,000 by Transfermarkt, the fee does seem rather small and, considering Gerrard has previously called him a future captain, it is disappointing to see him leave.
These supporters have taken to Twitter to share their thoughts – one even called it a “horrendous decision” – and you can see some of the best comments from the social media platform below:
This is a horrendous decision.

this makes no sense to me surely this means lewis ferguson is either on his way or will arrive next season?

Shocking decision from rangers FC.. no point in having the youth system at all bin the whole lot and just have the first team save the club money in the long run.. RM probably the best player to come out of the academy in the past few years and we just let him go.. shocking

Why Undisclosed Fee,
What’s being hidden that the FANS shouldn’t know… ?
Am sure the FANS should be noted of any FEES involving Players..
At the end of the Day it feels like you’re treating us SUPPORTERS like DIRT..
TREAT US THE SAME WAY AS YOU WOULD WANT TO BE TREATED. 🎱
