Player in red? (4-6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

left winger

This clue is a double definition.

'player' is the first definition.
(I know that left winger is a type of midfielder)

'red?' is the second definition.
(I know that left-winger is a type of red)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for left winger that I've seen before include "red" , "Team player" , "one of the Reds" , "Footballer" , "Commie" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
