Oscar Cortes suffers ANOTHER Rangers injury hammerblow as winger ruled out for 'several weeks'

Winger Oscar Cortes faces "several weeks" on the sidelines after a fresh injury blow.

The Lens loanee has struggled with injury this season, having limped off on the opening day of the Scottish Premiership season against Hearts - having had his first six months at Ibrox derailed by a muscle injury last season. But the 20-year-old appeared to be on the way back to full fitness after he started the clash with Dundee United in the league earlier this month and followed it with an appearance off the bench in the 3-0 win over Dundee in the Premier Sports Cup.

However, Philippe Clement has revealed another issue for the attacker going into Rangers' Europa League clash with Malmo. The Belgian boss said: "Oscar got a bad knock in a tackle and will be out for several weeks. It was in a dual, this is part of football it was an unlucky moment. He has been really unlucky the last couple of months and this is the end of his bad luck."
