Major Tom Lawrence Rangers injury update issued by Philippe Clement

Rangers star Tom Lawrence has been ruled out of action for the next four to six weeks.

Philippe Clement issued the injury latest on the Wales international ahead of tomorrow night's Europa League tie against Olympiacos.

"Tom Lawrence hasn't travelled, he got injured at the weekend and will be out for several weeks, 4-6 weeks.

"Of course, he's been important. He took the role really well. 

"This season he scored several really important goals, but not only that, also in the play, also defensive-wise. But it gives chances to other players to prove themselves. It's like that in football. It's part of football also.

"We don't have many (injuries) for the moment, touch wood. We want to continue in that way - with all the squad to be available. He started the season really well.

"He has played a key role in the team and has helped both in the play and the goals he's scored. And in general, the fact that he creates chances for the other players. 

"But that's football. We play with the team we have and we will keep the players available.’"
