Rangers injury update issued ahead of Athletic Bilbao tie

Barry Ferguson has provided an injury update on his Rangers squad ahead of tomorrow night's huge Europa League tie against Athletic Bilbao.

After drawing the first leg 0-0 at Ibrox, the Scottish Premiership giants are in northern Spain for the return leg of the quarter-final encounter.

The winner of the game will progress to the semi-finals, where they will face either Manchester United or Lyon.

Rangers have contended with a plethora of injury issues throughout the campaign.

"It's good news," Ferguson told the media. "Leon Balogun trained. Ridvan, Cerny, trained, and Rice all trained.

"So hopefully, when they wake up tomorrow, there's been no issues and as I said, hopefully we're going to be strong. Also, we've got John Souttar and Diomande back.

"Things are looking pretty healthy, but as I said, I just need to wait until tomorrow morning, I speak to the medical staff and hopefully I get the thumbs on."
