Three Rangers players back in training ahead of Aberdeen clash
Rangers will face Aberdeen away from home in the Scottish Premiership on Tuesday evening (18 January).
Ahead of the match, David Edgar has provided the latest injury update from the Gers camp from Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s press conference.
Writing on the Heart and Hand Podcast’s official Twitter account, the club’s official partner has reported that Scott Arfield will miss the clash tomorrow.
However, Ryan Jack is back in training and so are Kemar Roofe and Filip Helander. Edgar wrote:
Huge boost
The return of Jack and Roofe is a huge boost for Rangers, although both are unlikely to play on Tuesday.
Jack was expected to feature in the Europa League clash against Lyon, but he suffered yet another injury setback.
With Joe Aribo currently out on international duty, Jack can make a big impact if he finds his sharpness back again.
Roofe was in good form before he got injured. The 29-year-old forward has scored six goals in the league this season, and he is another player who is expected to play a big role under Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
Helander has hardly played this season, and it’s an opportunity for him to show his quality to the new manager.
Arfield, who has recently retired from international football with Canada, is unavailable for this game due to injury.
The Dutchman has made a dream start at Ibrox, winning all of his seven league games. Rangers are top of the SPFL table, six points ahead of Celtic.
