Rangers boss Gio van Bronckhorst has revealed goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin is set to miss their clash with Napoli – with Allan McGregor set to start between the sticks against the Serie A leaders.
Speculation over the fitness of the Ibrox number one ramped up after McLaughlin missed training with the rest of the group ahead of Wednesday night's crucial Group A clash, and Van Bronckhorst has now admitted the Scotland call up will miss the visit of the Serie A leaders.
McLaughlin, who has been included in Steve Clarke's Scotland squad on Tuesday for the Nations League fixtures, appeared to be in discomfort during the 4-0 loss in Amsterdam.
But the 40-year-old is set to receive his chance to stake a claim to once again be named Rangers number one against Napoli. Ahead of Champions League matchday two, Van Bronckhorst refused to put a timeline on his return from injury but backed McGregor for a big display on Tuesday.
