Nathan Patterson admits he has 'unfinished business' at Rangers and would LOVE a return later in his career.
The former Light Blues defender left Ibrox nearly a year ago in a big money move to the English Premier League with Everton in the next step of his career path. His journey south of the border started slow with a lack of minutes and involvement in the second part of last season, but things have flipped this term with the Scotland international now a key man for Frank Lampard and one of the favourites with the fans.
The 21-year-old has a bumper long-term contract with the Toffees and is loving every single minute of his time in England's top flight. He earned rave reviews earlier this season from pundits for his display against Liverpool in the Merseyside Derby and he is now the first-choice right back for his country.

But Patterson still has Rangers on his mind and after being involved in denying Celtic ten-in-a-row and winning title 55 - he admits he'd like to return north one day and win more titles and play in front of the passionate Ibrox support once again.
Speaking in the Sunday Mail, he said: “Of course I’d love to go back to Rangers later on in my career and finish what I started. It would be great to finish at Ibrox. It’s where I started off my career so it would be nice to play in front of those fans again.
“There’s a bit of unfinished business for me. I was involved in 55 but I’d like to go back and get more titles.
“I went to Seville last summer for the Europa League Final and hoped they could win it but they just fell short. Just seeing Rangers in a European final again was massive, though, and it shows how far the club has come.
“But right now, I’m really happy at Everton and want to continue to progress here and I’m fully focused on doing well at Goodison.”
