GARY MCALLISTER reckons Rangers star Ryan Kent will have caught the eye of England boss Gareth Southgate this term.
The 23-year-old netted his fifth goal of the campaign as he was instrumental in the victory over Willem II on Thursday night.
Kent was the subject of a £10million bid from Leeds United earlier in the transfer window and Ibrox assistant McAllister believes his fine form won't have gone unnoticed at Wembley.
McAllister said: "I'd agree that he is very exciting at the moment and playing with a lot of confidence.
"What I would say is that when he's performing the way he did against a team from Holland - Willem II are a good side who are in the Europa League on merit - then he must be getting close.
"There is a push towards younger players with the England set-up under Gareth Southgate.
"And Ryan is exciting. I don't want to be shouting from the rooftops but there is a player here who is in really good form."
