Rangers star Ryan Jack has declared himself fit for Sunday’s clash against Hamilton, as quoted by the Scottish Herald.
There was some injury concern after the 27-year-old was on the receiving end of a nasty challenge from Kazakhstan’s Islambek Kuat during Tuesday night’s Euro 2020 Qualifier.
The substitute’s studs-up tackle caught the Gers midfielder, but thankfully he has emerged unhurt.
“My leg is fine,” declared Jack, as quoted by the Scottish Herald. “Obviously, it was a bad one but the ref has seen it as a yellow.”
“There were a few naughty challenges – I don’t know what was behind that but the referee is there to protect us. Thankfully no-one is injured.”
Rangers linchpin Ryan Jack fit for Hamilton
It’s huge news for Steven Gerrard to have Jack fit and available following international duty.
It was a big week away for him, as he repaid Steve Clarke’s faith by playing well in Scotland’s midfield and helping guide the team to two competitive victories.
Facing Accies on a plastic surface at the weekend will present different challenges, but he’s the type of player to get stuck in straight away.
Three points are crucial for the Gers following a two-week layoff and having declared himself fit, it’d be a big surprise if we didn’t see him from the start.
