Rangers squad revealed as Kemar Roofe pushes for Europa League return

Rangers will arrive in Belgium for their Europa League opener almost at full strength.

Recent absentees Kemar Roofe and Joe Aribo have recovered from calf knocks and are in contention to face Standard Liege on Thursday.

New signing Bongani Zungu is still quarantining under Covid-19 rules while long-term casualty Nikola Katic remains out.

Meanwhile, Jermain Defoe, Jordan Jones and George Edmundson have stayed behind having been omitted from Steven Gerrard's Euro squad.

Rangers ' opponents, on the other hand, have been dealt a Covid-19 blow ahead of the tie.

Michel-Ange Balikwisha and Nicolas Raskin, who both started a weekend draw against Brugge, plus defender Moussa Sissako have all tested positive and will not feature.

Damjan Pavlovic and Abdoul Fessal Tapsoba, who live with Sissako, are being kept away from the rest of the squad.
