McLeish urges Glasgow Rangers to go for Nigerian youngster Abdulmalik

The player with high potential has represented England at U18 and U23 levels but is eligible to play for the Super Eagles

Alex McLeish has urged Glasgow Rangers to go for the signature of teenage striker Abdul Abdulmalik.

The youngster, who has West African roots thanks to his Nigerian father, is eligible to represent the Super Eagles. He has had a good season at Millwall so Premier League giants Arsenal and Championship side Swansea City have been rumoured to have shown interest in him.

However, the 62-year-old former Scotland coach has urged the Gers to go for the attacker who is highly rated.
