Rangers midfielder Connor Barron aims to achieve a perfect end to the season by winning the Scottish Premiership title and securing a place in Scotland's World Cup squad. The 23-year-old has recently recovered from a knee injury that kept him out of action for over two months. Barron's form prior to his injury earned him consecutive late call-ups to the national team, and he was part of the squad that secured a historic World Cup qualification with a 4-2 victory over Denmark at Hampden Park. Since his return in mid-March, Barron has only featured as a substitute for his club, but he is determined to play his part in the title race and catch the eye of Scotland boss Steve Clarke before the World Cup.
The competition for places in the Scotland squad is fierce, with a number of talented midfielders vying for spots. Barron believes he can bring energy, composure, and tenacity to the national team, and he is eager to prove himself and earn a place in the squad. With five games remaining, Rangers are one point behind leaders Hearts, and Barron is confident that his team has the right mindset to cope with the demands of a three-way title scrap.
He is hungry for more first-team opportunities in the run-in and is ready to show what he can do and keep his standards high to get himself back into the team.
