According to Dr Rajpal Brar, the Rangers’ medical staff will be closely monitoring Alfie Hutchison’s off-field habits as he prepares to join from Hearts. The injury expert advised the 15-year-old to focus on his strength and conditioning, diet, and mental health, among other things, since he aspires to be a professional athlete.
This comes after the Hearts Standard claimed on June 3 that Gers were likely to recruit the highly rated teenage attacker this summer. Brar, a doctor of physical therapy and a sports scientist, spoke exclusively with Ibrox News about his condition.
“The challenge with younger players like Hutchison who are still developing and evolving physically and cognitively is to understand where they fall on that spectrum and context, and how that projects forward.
The advice I would give someone of that age is to build great habits on and off the pitch, understanding that the actual football is just one part of being a great pro and having a long career.
“Things like strength and conditioning, nutrition, mental health, sleep, and recovery all underlie the footballing aspects.
The Rangers medical staff will also have to keep a watch on this because he is regarded as a potential first-team player in the future.
