Clement provides Rangers injury update on Raskin, Jack & Roofe

Rangers manager Philippe Clement has provided an injury update on his squad.

The Ibrox boss has confirmed he will be without Nicolas Raskin for the trip to Pittodrie to face Aberdeen on Sunday.

And Ryan Jack - fresh off the back of Scotland duty - is a doubt for the weekend.

Clement has been boosted, however, by the return of Kemar Roofe to Rangers training.

The striker is back in full sessions with the first-team squad for "a couple days a week".

Clement said: "Raskin still out, Jack is doubtful for Sunday.

"Roofe is starting to train with the team in full sessions a couple days a week, the rest of the squad trained as normal."

On a timeline for Raskin, Clement added: "Nico will return in the next couple of weeks, not a major issue now."

An on squad fitness generally, Clement said: "It's important to keep everyone fit. We need all the players to show they are ready with the fixtures we have. I'm satisfied with the level of training and the satisfaction and dedication.

"There has been the same amount of work during the international break but in different ways to busy match weeks."
