We study the image of the model subspace ${{K}_{\theta }}$ under the composition operator ${{C}_{\varphi }}$, where $\varphi $ and $\theta $ are inner functions, and find the smallest model subspace which contains the linear manifold ${{C}_{\varphi }}{{K}_{\theta }}$. Then we characterize the case when ${{C}_{\varphi }}$ maps ${{K}_{\theta }}$ into itself. This case leads to the study of the inner functions $\varphi $ and $\psi $ such that the composition $\psi \,\text{o}\,\varphi $ is a divisor of $\psi $ in the family of inner functions.
