RANGERS striker Ryan Hardie has joined Championship side Livingston on loan until the end of the campaign.
The 20-year-old has previously had spells at Raith Rovers and St Mirren in recent seasons and has made eight appearances for the Light Blues this term.
He will now join David Hopkin's side and link-up with Ibrox midfielder Jordan Thompson at the Tony Macaroni Arena.
Hopkin said: “I have been trying to get Ryan into Livingston since the day I took the job on, but it never happened for various reasons.
“I am delighted that we have been successful this time round, and believe he will really add to the strike force we have at the club.
“The lad is a natural goal scorer who also brings energy and enthusiasm in abundance and I’m really looking forward to working with him.
“I would like to thank Ryan and the staff at Rangers for choosing and allowing him to come and continue his football development at Livingston.
“There were a host of clubs interested in taking Ryan on loan and it speaks volumes for our club that we have secured his services.
“I sound like a broken record, but I can’t thank the board enough for their support, and I’m sure we will all repay them in with our efforts to continually strive to do the best we can for Livingston FC.”
