RANGERS have told their supporters that next week's Champions League clash against Napoli is scheduled to take place as planned.

"We are aware of policing and resource pressures, especially on Tuesday, 13th September.

"We can confirm that discussions are taking place between UEFA, Police Scotland and Rangers regarding our scheduled UEFA Champions League fixture v Napoli on Tuesday, 13th September. 

"As present, the game is scheduled to take place at the scheduled date and time."
