KYLE HUTTON once mixed it with the likes of Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs in the Champions League.
And he's still going strong at the age of 32, even if he's now dropped down the divisions.
The midfielder has a new club today after agreeing a loan deal from West of Scotland Premier Division side Pollok.
He's moved to another club in the division in the form of last year's Scottish Cup giant killers Darvel.
After the huge highs of the epic cup win over Aberdeen, Darvel released a statement recently to explain that they would be making a deficit and were cutting cloths accordingly.
But they clearly feel that the loan signing of Hutton can be an important step within their budget.
They wrote in a statement: "We can confirm that we have signed midfielder Kyle Hutton on loan from @pollokfc for the remainder of the 23/24 season.
"Kyle brings a wealth of experience playing at a high level and we canāt wait to see him show what he can do in a Darvel shirt this campaign."
Hutton broke into the Gers first team as a teenager under Walter Smith,making his debut that August againstĀ Kilmarnock and helping the Ibrox clubĀ winĀ the league title andĀ League Cup.
He got a surprise start in the Champions League againstĀ Manchester UnitedĀ that season, and stuck around whenĀ RangersĀ dropped down the divisions.
