Twenty year old Lee signed for Rangers in December 1998 and joined a squad packed with internationalists assembled by Dick Advocaat.
A talented midfielder with undoubted natural ability, Lee had attracted much interest whilst starring for Linfield in his homeland and where he was unimaginatively tagged as having the potential to become the new George Best! He certainly had some high profile admirers, both Walter Smith (Everton) and David Moyes (Preston) were keen to secure Feeney’s services.
Instead, Lee chose to make the move to Glasgow but despite spending more than three years at Ibrox his sole appearance came #OTD 2️⃣5️⃣ years ago. A midweek league encounter saw Rangers travel to Dens Park whilst running out comfortable 4-0 winners. Charlie Miller, also getting a rare opportunity under Advocaat, would net twice before being replaced by Lee.
Failing to make the breakthrough, Lee returned to Linfield in 2002.
