Rangers squad revealed as Steven Gerrard contends with Glen Kamara absence one last time against Alashkert

Steven Gerrard's pool of Rangers players is narrowed once more as his champions return to European duty against Alashkert.

The Ibrox side are back to winning ways after seeing off Dunfermline 5-0 last week.

But as they aim to make the Europa League group stage they once again have to contend with a pair of UEFA bans.

This will be the last time they'll be without Glen Kamara on the continent as he serves the final match of his suspension from the Ondrej Kudela and Slavia Prague incident last season.

Kemar Roofe is out for both legs of the tie against the Armenians too for his tackle on goalkeeper Ondrej Kolar in the same game but will be back for whatever group stage the Ibrox side find themselves in.

They'll hope it's the second-tier competition rather than a second drop in quality to the Europa Conference League.

Long term absentees Ryan Jack and Nnamdi Ofoborh remain unavailable.

Veteran 38-year-old striker Jermain Defoe continues to skip European matches to manage his minutes and Nikola Katic isn't quite ready to return to full-on competitive action with a loan move possible.
