SunSport can reveal Light Blues caretaker Graeme Murty included the outstanding attacking prospect in the squad for the Scottish Cup tie against Morton at Ibrox.

Derek Ferguson is the club’s current milestone holder having played against Queen of the South on August 24, 1983 aged 16 years and 24 days.

But an appearance by Gilmour, who is 15 and 246 days, against Jim Duffy’s men would easily shatter Ferguson’s record.

Rangers are desperate to keep the Scotland youth starlet beyond his 16th birthday on June 11 — but they’re in a desperate fight with giant clubs in England and Europe.

Arsenal and Chelsea are the biggest rivals to secure Gilmour’s immediate future, with SunSport revealing the youngster and his parents were recently VIP guests of the Gunners in London.

Barcelona, Manchester City and Manchester United are also all tracking him with a view to potentially striking a substantial six-figure deal.

Prior to his sudden departure on Friday night, former Gers boss Mark Warburton had been working hard to try and persuade Gilmour and his family his future was better served at Ibrox.

Warburton had even involved Gilmour in first-team training in the his last week in the hotseat.

He’d promised the Gilmours their son — the most wanted young talent in Scottish football — would be in his plans over the next few years.

But the Gers hopes still lie in the balance — given the glamour and pull of the Emirates, Stamford Bridge, Old Trafford, the Etihad and Nou Camp.

In December Warburton said: “Billy is a talented player and I’m sure many clubs are looking at him.

“But right now, he is a Rangers player and our job is to show him the pathway there is to get to the first team.”
