Ryan Jack is “fine” and working hard to get back into the Rangers team according to manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
The midfielder had been out for nearly eight months before returning for a 19-minute cameo against Ross County at Ibrox on the 7th of November.
He then played for the final 21 minutes against Hibs in the disastrous semi-final of the Premier Sports Cup but hasn’t made the squad for the first three games of his new manager’s tenure so far.
And when asked about Jack prior to last night’s 1-0 win over the Leith side at Easter Road, van Bronckhorst gave an update.

He said: “He is fine, he is fine. We know he has been out for a while and is working hard to get back to fitness levels.
“We are doing everything we can to make sure he is back as soon as possible but we have to take into account the game and we only have seven substitutes so I want to have a bench with players I can put in at any minute.”
