will be given “every chance” to prove his fitness for Glasgow Rangers ‘ clash with St Mirren Steven Gerrard has revealed.
The centre-back limped out of Thursday night’s Europa League win over Brondby having earlier opened the scoring with a powerful header. But the Nigeria international appeared to pick up a hamstring issue during the second-half and was substituted.Ibrox boss Steven Gerrard hasn’t ruled the 33-year-old out of Sunday’s visit to Paisley but conceded he remains a fitness doubt.
“We will give Leon every chance for the weekend, he is still a doubt but not ruled out just yet,”Gerrard said ahead of St Mirren clash.“He has an outside chance for the weekend but we also have to analyse the risk so we will make a really late decision on that one but it is probably 50-50.” A lay-off for Balogun would further tighten Rangers’ options at centre-back, with Filip Helander a long-term absentee and Nikola Katic on-loan in Croatia.All rights reserved.
