Rangers injury news as Russell Martin set to be boosted by return of key man
The midfielder hasn’t been seen since the Champions League thumping by Club Brugge
Rangers hope to have Lyall Cameron back in their ranks for Sunday’s visit to Livingston.
The midfielder has been out with injury since the Light Blues’ heavy Champions League exit to Club Brugge last month.
The 22-year-old is now back in full training, although Thursday’s home Europa League clash with Genk is likely to come too soon.
Rangers will be looking to open up in their group with a win on Thursday night.
Cameron’s return will be a welcome boost to under pressure Rangers boss Russell Martin, although he did receive a lift with last weekend’s long, overdue Premier Sports Cup win over Hibs.
Cameron, when he has been fit, has been in his Rangers starting XI, although he has missed the last three games against Celtic, Hearts and Hibs.
Martin has also praised him on occasion for his performances, especially after the Champions League qualifier with Viktoria Plzen, where he scored away from home.
Rangers signed him on a pre-contract from Premiership rivals Dundee in the summer.
Clubs are on-going over a compensation package although there remains a major gulf between both sides and a tribunal looks like the most likely outcome to decide a fee.
Meanwhile, Wales are hoping to persuade on-loan Rangers winger Mikey Moore to switch allegiance.
The wide man, who is on-loan from Tottenham Hotspur, has represented England up to under-19 level and has been tipped to go on and win full caps.
National boss Craig Bellamy and the Football Association of Wales have made their pitch to try and persuade Moore, who is the youngster player to play for Spurs, to play for their national team.
Moore, however, as it stands is quite happy to bide his time in the England set-up, although the Welsh will continue to push.
