Club career

From the village of Dailly in South Ayrshire, McCrorie was scouted by Rangers, the team his family supported, at a young age and started training with the Govan club at the age of fourteen.[1]

On 17 June 2017, after being involved in match-day squads over the previous two seasons without making an appearance,[2][3] McCrorie was loaned out to Berwick Rangers.[4] In December 2017, McCrorie signed a contract extension with the Light Blues until May 2022.[1][5] Despite the Wee Gers finishing third last in the league, McCrorie played a major role that season, winning the club's player of the year award.[2]

On 25 January 2019, McCrorie was loaned to Greenock Morton, alongside fellow Rangers youth player Andy Dallas until the end of the 2018–19 season.[6]

On 4 July 2019, McCrorie went on loan to Queen of the South on a deal that was due to run for the whole of the 2019–20 season [7] but he was recalled by Rangers during January 2020.[8] McCrorie was then loaned out to Scottish Premiership club Livingston until 31 May 2020,[8] making eight appearances for the club.[8]

After signing a new contract at Rangers until 2023, McCrorie returned to Livingston on loan for the 2020–21 season on 9 July 2020.[9]

International career

McCrorie has represented Scotland at various youth levels.[10]
