Glasgow Rangers have now been gifted a potential massive boost before their UEFA Europa League second leg clash on Thursday night.

The Lowdown: Cards close to the chest

Speaking in his pre-game press conference ahead of the home tie against RB Leipzig, Giovanni van Bronckhorst admitted that he 'can't say' whether either Kemar Roofe or Aaron Ramsey will make the squad following their respective setbacks with injury.

They are set to have one final training session before the Dutch manager picks his squad, and so both players will be hoping to prove their fitness ahead of the match.

The Latest: Optimistic

Contrary to van Bronckhorst's rather ambiguous comment, The Scottish Sun claim that he is 'optimistic' that Roofe will be fit enough, and the striker is 'expected' to be named in the squad.

Van Bronckhorst allegedly believes that the striker has 'responded well' to treatment in the past couple of weeks, and he has 'not been ruled out', in what would be a 'massive boost' for the Teddy Bears.

The Verdict: Massive indeed

It would certainly be a big boost for the Light Blues if Roofe were to be available after injury.

After all, he is their second-top scorer this season behind Alfredo Morelos, with 16 goals in total over all competitions so far.

Two of those have come in the Europa League, while he also ranks highly among his teammates in terms of shots per game in the competition (WhoScored).

Nonetheless, for the Teddy Bears to overturn the 1-0 deficit from the first leg, they will want Roofe fit and firing on all cylinders.
