Alan Hutton reckons Josh Doig would be an ideal fit for Rangers and is surprised that they didn't try to sign him sooner. The former Hibs left back has been linked with a move to Rangers as Philippe Clement looks for a long term solution at left back.

Doig has thrived in Italy since leaving the capital for Hellas Verona. He since graduated to the full Scotland squad under Steve Clarke and look set to make the next step in his career, either during January or the summer window.

With doubts over the futures of Borna Barisic and Ridvan Yilmaz, Hutton can see Doig becoming Gers left-back for some time. He insists the former Hibee has all the attributes to be a successful signing at Ibrox and is a better player now than when he left Scotland. "I thought that he was a player that both teams in Glasgow would have looked at before he left," the former Scotland international said. "He had all the attributes to be a modern-day full-back - physically strong, can get up and down the pitch, an attacking full-back and that's how Rangers like to play.

He would come back a better player having played in Italy and you'd think defensively, he would be learning week in, week out.
