The 83-year-old spent 12 years at Ibrox between 1960 and 1972
Ronnie McKinnon, a former player for Scotland and Rangers, passed away at age 83.
The defender made his debut at the age of 20 and spent 12 years with the Ibrox team between 1960 and 1972.
He assisted the team in capturing three League Cups, four Scottish Cups, and two league championships in 1963 and 1964. He was eventually put into the hall of fame.
He shattered his leg in his final match for Rangers, a victory against Sporting Lisbon in the second round of the Cup Winners’ Cup, and the team was unable to bring home the trophy in Barcelona at the conclusion of that campaign.
He was a member of the Scotland side that defeated England to win the British Home Championships in 1967, earning 28 international caps.
Donnie McKinnon, McKinnon’s twin brother, played professional football with Partick Thistle for 14 seasons.
When the news of his death was made public on Sunday, Rangers paid respect.
A club statement that was shared on social media read: “The club sends our sympathies to Elizabeth, his widow, and all of his family.
“The family asks for privacy during this difficult time. The club will honor Mr. McKinnon further in due time.
