Andrew "Andy" Murdoch (born 30 January 1995) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Scottish Premiership club Rangers.

Career

Rangers

Murdoch joined Rangers from Paisley based Everton Boys Club after trials with Dundee United and Celtic.[1]

In April 2013, he played and scored in a friendly match at Ibrox Stadium against Linfield.[2] Just over two weeks later he made his competitive debut against East Stirlingshire as an 80th-minute substitute for Kyle Hutton on 27 April 2013.[3]

Murdoch made only one appearance during the 2013–14 season, in a Scottish League One match against East Fife.[4] Murdoch scored his first competitive goals on 20 February 2015 against Raith Rovers.[5] A few days later Murdoch agreed a two-and-a-half-year extension with Rangers that will expire in May 2017. In May 2015, Murdoch won the Rangers' Young Player of the Year award.[6]

Cowdenbeath (loan)

On 1 September 2015, Murdoch moved on loan to Cowdenbeath until January 2016.[7]

Queen of the South (loan)

On 11 January 2016, Murdoch signed on loan to Queen of the South until the end of the 2015–16 season[8]. On 1 March, whilst his parent club Rangers were playing at home to Raith Rovers, Murdoch scored the only goal in a 1-0 win against Hibernian. Rangers won their match and Murdoch's goal left Hibernian trailing Rangers by fourteen points in the Scottish Championship.

International career

Murdoch represented Scotland once, at under-16 level, in a Victory Shield match against England in 2011.[9]
