Rangers goalkeeper Aidan McAdams controversially moved to Ibrox from Celtic last summer, but the teenager has revealed that the shock switch was made easy by the staffs and the players in Govan.
McAdams, 19, joined the Gers in a deal which could have been worth £150,000, according to the Daily Record, and it caused a lot of controversy among some sections of the support in Glasgow’s East End.
However the Scotland Under-19 international has heaped praise on his team-mates at Ibrox for helping him settle down after such a high-profile move for a young player.
“It was fairly comfortable. All the staff and players made it really easy and I now have some very close mates at the club,” McAdams said in a Q&A session via Rangers’ Youth DC Twitter account on Thursday.

OPINION
McAdams has done well since settling down at Rangers and hopefully he can continue his good form and work his way up the ranks at both Ibrox and in the Scotland youth system. It was a blow for Celtic to lose the highly-rated young goalkeeper and it was mad that the Hoops decided that they were willing to let him move across Glasgow. McAdams still has some work to do to prove that he was worth the £150,000 paid for him, but he is still young and is playing in one of Scotland’s best youth systems. Craig Mulholland was full of praise for the 19-year-old shot-stopper when he swapped Celtic for Rangers last summer, and it seemed as though there were a lot of clubs that he could have joined instead of the Gers. Looking on his Twitter account, some Celtic fans are still sore about his controversial move last year – what a bitter bunch some of them are.
