Rangers attacking midfielder Malik Tillman has been lauded as the Gers' "player of the year so far" by Ibrox reporter Jordan Campbell.

The Lowdown: Beale hails Tillman

The Gers signed Tillman on a season-long loan from Bayern Munich in the summer, with the deal including an exclusive option to buy subject to international clearance.

This is clearly something that Michael Beale wants the club to take up, recently stating: "Malik’s a no-brainer for me. I would like Malik to be here for a number of years. He’s an excellent young player and he’s enjoying his football here. Again, that’s for the people above me to organise.”

The Latest: Campbell reacts

Campbell has also lauded the midfielder, taking to Twitter to praise the development he has undergone since Beale shifted him deeper into midfield.

The journalist said: "Beale trusting Tillman in a midfield containing Cantwell was testament to how much progress he’s made in the transition to a No8. He’s worked on his reactions off the ball & is matching the intensity of games now. Rangers’ player of the year so far."
