Lewis Budinauckas joined Partick Thistle from Rangers on a loan deal until the season on Thursday, 20th February 2025.
Son of ex-Jags ‘keeper Kevin Budinauckas, 22-year-old Lewis is a former Scotland Under 21s international having featured twice in their most recent European Championship qualifying campaign.
After featuring regularly for the Rangers B team in 2022/23, Budinauckas took the opportunity to go out on loan last season as he joined Stranraer where he would play 33 times and keep 9 clean sheets as the Stair Park side maintained their SPFL status.
Earlier this season, Lewis spent a short spell with Greenock Morton after signing with them on an emergency loan basis in October and he featured four times for the Ton before returning to Rangers.
Budinauckas debuted for the Jags in a 1-1 draw against Airdrieonians at The Wyre Stadium at Firhill.
By the end of the campaign, he’d made eight appearances for Thistle, keeping four clean sheets along the way.
Loan expires: Summer 2025
