A MANCHESTER UNITED youth product who played just one senior game for the club has gone on to play in Europe.<\/p>\n

Tom Lawrence, now 29, came through the Red Devils Academy and made his debut in a 3-1 over Hull in 2014.<\/p>\n


\n
\n<\/p>\n

However, his sole appearance is perhaps better remembered for another reason – Ryan Giggs' last-ever game for the club.<\/p>\n

Giggs had taken over at Man Utd on an interim basis after the sacking of David Moyes. <\/p>\n

The Welshman was still a player that season, and took on a rarely-seen player-manager role at the club.<\/p>\n

He then brought himself on after 70 minutes in place of Lawrence during the game against Hull.<\/p>\n

Despite this, the then 20-year-old was in a jubilant mood, tweeting afterwards: "Wow what a feeling that was tonight and loved every minute of it!<\/p>\n

"Coming off too be replaced by a legend like giggs #whatafeeling."<\/p>\n

Despite an impressive debut, Lawrence would fail to make his breakthrough and was sold to Leicester in 2014.<\/p>\n

The winger went on to star for the Foxes in the Premier League alongside a string of loan spells to Championship clubs before Derby picked Lawrence up permanently in 2017.<\/p>\n

With the Rams Lawrence enjoyed the most productive spell of his career, netting 37 goals and adding 25 assists in 185 games.<\/p>\n

Scottish giants Rangers then came calling in 2022, with Lawrence heading to Ibrox stadium in a free transfer. <\/p>\n

Since arriving in Scotland, he has starred for Gers in Europe.<\/p>\n

Lawrence played in four Champions League qualifying matches last season before suffering a 10-month injury lay-off.<\/p>\n

This season saw him play in Rangers' Europa League group stage opener against Real Betis before limping off in a blow to Michael Beale, who is already without Todd Cantwell and Nico Raskin.<\/p>\n
