RFCRobertson 11,792 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 http://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/wallace-extends-gers-contract/#.V2gTa95gTns.twitter Quote RANGERS Football Club is delighted to confirm that club captain Lee Wallace has extended his contract with the club until May 2019. Light Blues captain Wallace won the PFA Scotland Championship player of the year and a double of Player of the Year and John Greig award at the Rangers Player of the Year awards as he led the Gers to the SPFL Championship last campaign. Wallace joined the club in July 2011 from Hearts and he extended his contract at the Gers for five years in September 2012. Edinburgh-born Wallace joined Hearts Academy from Salvesen Boys Club and earned a professional contract in July 2004. He then made his debut in February 2005 and was an important squad man when the Jambos were runners-up in the League in 2005-06. At Rangers, Wallace found himself often playing left-midfield in his first season as he struggled to dislodge the ultra-consistent Sasa Papac. He managed his first Old Firm goal with a fabulous finish in Rangers sensational 3-2 victory over Celtic in March 2012. He was then the first high profile star to commit his future to the Light Blues following administration. He was promoted to vice-captain as Rangers began life in the Third Division, and showed his true quality by creating a trademark of charging runs from left-back. When Mark Warburton took over as manager, he made the step up to assume the role as club captain Marauding left back Wallace scored nine goals last season in 50 appearances for the club and he has now featured in a Light Blue shirt in over 200 games, scoring 21 times. Wallace was one of three players who played in all games for the Gers last season and becomes the latest player to pledge his future to the club after Jason Holt and Andy Halliday signed extended deals in January. @LeeWallaceRFC Beat you too it mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
