Manchester United defender Phillip Bardsley has joined Glasgow Rangers on loan.

The right-back follows team-mate Lee Martin to Ibrox, and will stay with the Glasgow giants until the New Year.

The Salford-born youngster is regarded as an excellent prospect for the future by Sir Alex Ferguson, and the move north will present the player with some much-needed first-team football.

Bardsley already has 17 Red Devils appearances to his name, and spent a brief spell on loan at Burnley towards the end of last season.
