Rangers player posts cheeky title Tweet after leaving Ibrox on loan

Brandon Barker ꦉhas completed a deadline-day loan move to Oxford United from R🍃angers until the end of the season as he looks to get some game time under his belt – and the winger has posted a cheeky title Tweet after his exit.

Barker, 24, joined Rangers in the summer of 2019 after impressive spells with Preston Nor🌄th End and Hibernian – but has only managed to play 26 times in all competitions over the course of the past 18 months.

He has s💙cored three goals in that time and enjoyed a brief resurgence following 2020’s pre-season – but ultimately has failed to cope with the competition from the likes of Ryan Kent, Ke𓂃mar Roofe, Ianis Hagi and Scott Arfield.

But Barker has made himse♛lf available – understanding game time was always going to be at a premium. He has s✱ince reacted on Twitter to his move, cheekily including the hashtag “55” as Rangers remain clear of Celtic.

TBR’s view – Does Barker have a future at Rangers?

The former Manchester City star is in the final 18 months of his contract at Rangers and ultimately has not been able to keep𝓰 up with the constant progressi﷽on and improving standards that Gerrard has brought to the club.

Although he has been a good squad player and useful when turned to, he is likely to end up in the same kind of category as Greg Docherty, Jamie Murphy and others – decent, but the ♋Gers have bette🍌r at their disposal.
