RANGERS youngster Kai Kennedy has joined Falkirk on loan.
The 20-year-old will play the 2022/23 season in League One with The Bairns.
Kennedy has plenty of lower league experience, having already had short spells with Inverness, Raith, Dunfermline and Hamilton.
Falkirk manager John McGlynn previously worked with the attacker at Raith.
He will wear the number 73 shirt for the promotion hopefuls.

McGlynn said: “Kai is a player Paul and I have worked with previously at Raith Rovers. We enjoyed working with him and he enjoyed working with us, and we hope that will be the same again. Kai gives us real competition in the wider areas, he can play at both sides and in a number 10 position.
“He’s going to be in competition with the guys who are already in the team, and he needs to force himself in which is exactly what he’s going to try and do. It will breed good competition with others trying to play well to stay in the team.
“Kai has come here to do well, he wants to kick his career on and we’re looking to help him, and all the other players here at Falkirk with that. We’re still looking within the transfer market, and we are still hopeful that we’ll be bringing others in. I would like to thank everyone at Rangers who has made this loan deal possible.”
