After making his first appearances of the season against Dundee and Livingston Kemar Roofe is again out injured.

The former Leeds United striker replaced Borna Barisic in the 81st minute of the draw with Livingston last Saturday to build on his appearance against Dundee in the League Cup.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst left Roofe out of his Champions League squad, ruling him out of the defeat from Napoli but with four SPFL matches to play before the World Cup break the striker won’t be available for selection.

Roofe’s absence leaves Alfredo Morelos as the only back-up for Antonio Colak with the Colombian heavily criticised for his performance against Napoli in midweek.

In the summer of 2020 the Ibrox club paid Anderlecht a fee of £4m for Roofe who is under contract until May 2024.
