Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has confirmed that midfielder Bongani Zungu will start against Lech Poznan this evening.
The Gers are back in Europa League action, and head to Poland in search of a positive result to end their group stage campaign.
Rangers are already through though, and Gerrard will most likely rotate his side to give fringe players some match action.
One of those will be Zungu, who joined Rangers on loan from Amiens on deadline day back in October.
The South African international has started just one game for Rangers so far, and that came in the 4-0 Scottish League Cup win over Falkirk.
With three other substitute appearances to his name, Zungu is yet to really get going for the Gers, but needs to get moving quickly.
He is only on loan from Amiens and is essentially playing for a permanent deal, and competition for places is strong at Ibrox.
Gerrard has now confirmed that Zungu will be playing against Poznan tonight, branding it a ‘fantastic opportunity’ for the 28-year-old as he bids for a long-term future in Glasgow.
“Bongani will be playing tomorrow and it is a fantastic opportunity for him to perform,” said Gerrard.
