Mikey Moore’s struggles at Rangers have coincided with the side having one of the worst starts to a campaign in the club’s history.

The Tottenham prospect was sent out on loan to Ibrox in the hopes of gaining some valuable experience that will help take him to the next level in his career.

Plenty of current Spurs stars have spent time in Scotland, such as James Maddison’s loan spell at Aberdeen, which is where Alfie Dorrington has spent the past year, too.

Despite that, Mikey Moore’s early struggles have many supporters at the club doubting whether he has the quality needed.

The youngster has seemingly proven those Rangers doubters wrong over the international break, but he faces a challenge to do it again.

Mikey Moore scores a hat-trick for England under-19s to show his quality

Mikey Moore’s struggles at Rangers came under the reign of Russell Martin, who struggled to get the team going in his short spell at the club.

While featuring under the manager, the 18-year-old was moved to play in all kinds of positions, with a style that just didn’t fit.

Now, with a break from the club football, Moore has taken to the international stage to feature for the England under-19s.

While there, he has shown just how good he really is, bagging a hat-trick for the Three Lions in a 4-1 win over Belgium.

That was wrapped up in the second half before being substituted in the 67th minute, showing just how efficient he was.

While that was youth football, Moore has shown he is more than good enough to take that next step.

He has proven Rangers fans wrong once there, but he still has a lot of work to do to prove them wrong again moving forward, something they will be hoping for.

Rangers manager decision will be crucial in Mikey Moore’s development

Rangers are on the hunt for a new manager, as they look to replace Russell Martin after his difficult stay at the club.

The new head coach will have to turn around a team which has just one win after seven games in the league so far this season.

That will include some tough decisions, and it remains to be seen where Moore could end up among all of that.

Now he has proven he has quality and an eye for goal, it’s time for him to really do it for Rangers when it really matters.

If the new manager, whoever that ends up being, can improve the team, then it may give Moore the platform he needs to kickstart his career at Ibrox truly.
