# Rangers: Giovanni van Bronckhorst confirms Glen Kamara is ‘back’

**Giovanni van Bronckhorst has confirmed that Glen Kamara is ‘back’ for [Glasgow Rangers](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/rangers-fc-news/) after injury ahead of their UEFA Champions League clash tonight.**

### The Lowdown: Ankle problem

Van Bronckhorst revealed a couple of weeks ago that Kamara has been suffering from an ankle ‘[problem](https://twitter.com/RangersFC/status/1583440540716396545)‘, which has ruled him out of the last [six](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glen-kamara/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/242632/plus/0?saison=2022&verein=124&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) games in total over all competitions.

The central midfielder has only missed [one](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glen-kamara/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/242632/plus/0?saison=2022&verein=124&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) match for which he has been available, highlighting his importance to the side.

### The Latest: Kamara ‘back’

Speaking to the media in his pre-game press conference ahead of their match against Ajax at Ibrox tonight, Van Bronckhorst has confirmed that Kamara is ‘[back](https://twitter.com/RangersFC/status/1587121695625732098)‘ and available for selection.

However, Ben Davies, Ridvan Yilmaz and John Lundstram are set to miss out through injury and suspension respectively.

### The Verdict: Timely boost

With the injuries to Davies and Yilmaz, as well as the suspension to Lundstram, having Kamara back in the squad is at least a timely boost for Van Bronckhorst and his squad.

Once lauded as a [‘Rolls Royce’](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/3919936/rangers-steven-gerrard-hamilton-st-johnstone/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1551027237) by former manager Steven Gerrard, the Finland international has plenty of [experience](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/glen-kamara/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/242632/plus/0?saison=&verein=124&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) in European competition for the Gers over the last four campaigns, and in the Champions League this season, no Light Blues player has a higher pass success rate ([95.7%](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/306/Show/Scotland-Rangers)) than him.

Kamara likes to get on the ball and stamp his authority, and his calmness in possession is exactly what the Teddy Bears if they are going to get a result against Ajax.
