Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are due an early Christmas present
Mark Warburton has told a press conference that unlucky Rangers midfielder Jordan Rossiter is around 10 days away from returning.
The 19-year-old has barely featured for Rangers following his summer move from Liverpool.
The talented midfielder had three Premiership games under his belt in August when a calf injury sidelined him, and he then suffered a setback in his recovery last month.
But Warburton told a press conference this afternoon, quoted by Rangers’ official Twitter account, that the Liverpudlian, along with Josh Windass, was closing in on a return to full fitness.
Rangers haven’t had the best of luck with their summer additions.
Everybody knows what happened with Joey Barton, whose contract was terminated last month, but Rossiter isn’t the only new arrival to have struggled with injury in his maiden season at Ibrox.
Windass, arguably the best of Warburton’s 12 signings so far, has endured a stop-start first few months as a Rangers man, while Niko Kranjcar is unlucky to play again until the last month of the season after suffering a knee injury.
In addition to that, the ones who have stayed fit haven’t exactly set the world alight, with Joe Dodoo and Joe Garner enduring inconsistent starts to their spells in Glasgow.
