The 19-year-old has played just four minutes of football since 15 December and has recently been linked with a move away from Ibrox

Rangers boss Danny Rohl is unlikely to sanction a loan exit for promising youngster Findlay Curtis despite reports linking him with a mid-season move away from the Glasgow club.

Football Insider reporter Peter O’Rourke understands that Rohl and the Glasgow hierarchy see Curtis as a key player for the future and someone that still has a role to play in the coming months despite struggling for first team minutes in the last few weeks.

The Balfron-born left-winger joined Rangers' academy at age 6, having impressed at a football school run by the club. He signed his first professional contract in 2022 and won the Scottish Youth Cup in 2024 before progressing into the B team. Curtis registered four goals and three assists at that level and has since showcased his talents at senior level.

Curtis has played 22 times for Rangers scoring three goals and contributing one assist. He’s played 17 of those matches this term and has scored against the likes of Panathinaikos in a Champions League qualifier, St Mirren in the Premiership and Alloa Athletic in the League Cup. He’s been earmarked at international level as one to watch and has shown glimpses of promise at Under-21 level for Scotland aswell.

Curtis has big future at Rangers

Curtis has played just four minutes of first team football since 15th December despite a promising start to the campaign. This led to reports from Rangers Review suggesting the youngster could be loaned out to another club in January to help harness his potential through more regular first team action.

Football Insider, however, argues that’s unlikely to be the case unless attacking additions are sourced in the early part of January. Meaning Curtis is instead expected to fight for his role in the first team ahead of a busy period in the season.

Curtis has already made a great impression on Ibrox favourite

Scottish wonderkid Curtis is still someone that’s very much learning his trade, but he’s already made a lasting impression on a number of popular figures at Rangers, including legendary striker turned Sky Sports pundit Kris Boyd.

Over the summer Boyd referred to Curtis as a shining example to others in the club’s academy. He said: “It’s amazing to see a young player like Findlay Curtis getting a chance with the first team, and he has grabbed the opportunity with both hands. Rangers have a great academy full of talent, and it’s nice to see them getting an opportunity to train and get around the first team.

He added: “Crucially for Rangers, he is a great example of a great pathway between the academy and the first team, which is extremely important," Boyd said. "It gives all the other academy players a boost as they can see it is possible if they work hard, opportunities will come.”
