Rangers return confirmed as attacker back at Ibrox after 'unfortunate' transfer

Jake Hastie has returned to Rangers following his loan stint at Partick Thistle.

The winger from Law made six appearances for the Jags after his half-season loan agreement from Ibrox in August.

He has struggled to make an impact at the Championship club and now heads back to Govan after a disappointing spell.

Hastie joined Rangers in 2019 on a four-year-deal after a purple patch of form with Motherwell, but he has found subsequent loans at Rotherham, Fir Park and the Jags frustrating.

The 22-year-old spent time on loan at Airdrie and Alloa while still with Motherwell and has 18 months left to run on his Rangers deal.

Partick Thistle manager Ian McCall said: "After speaking to Jake we came to the decision that it was best for him to go back to Rangers.

"He’s not had the game time that he or I would have liked for him during his time at Firhill which is unfortunate because I do think he’s a player with a lot quality.

"Unfortunately, the team has been in good form which has meant he’s had to come off the bench and it’s always difficult to make an impact that way.

“Like I said, he’s a player with a plenty of quality and ability who I’m sure still has a great future in the game and we wish him all the best for that future.”
