Moore is on loan at Rangers and is very much alive.<\/p>\n<p>The 18-year-old, who is usually used on the left but is also comfortable as a second striker, has been the driving force behind the Ibrox side&#8217;s title-winning run, scoring six Premiership goals since Danny Rolle took over in December.<\/p>\n<p>But that doesn&#8217;t tell the whole story.
