Malik Tillman has been pictured back in training with Bayern Munich as he steps up his return from injury.
The USA international limped off during Rangers' Scottish Cup semi-final defeat to Celtic in what proved to be a season ending injury. He has been back in Glasgow since after he was named PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year while he also scooped prizes in the Light Blues' own club awards as talk over his future rumbles on.
The Daily Record have now shared an image of the 20-year-old back in the colours of his parent club as he steps up his fitness bid to get himself fit and firing ahead of pre-season and the new campaign. During his spell in Scotland he netted 12 goals in 43 appearances with 10 of those strikes coming in the Scottish Premiership.

It remains to be seen if he has a future with the German champions with Rangers holding an exclusive option as part of the loan agreement last summer to bring him back to Ibrox on a full-time basis. The fee is believed to be in the region of £5million if all parties give the transfer the green light.
Speaking earlier this month, Tillman said: “I’ve spoken to Michael Beale already and he said, ‘Just take your time. It’s your decision’. That’s what I’m going to do. The option is until the beginning of June or something so I still have three or four weeks to decide. I’m going to take my time because obviously it’s a big decision for me.”
Rangers have started the hard work on the recruitment front already with Beale giving further details into the reason behind the Ibrox exits of Alfredo Morelos, Ryan Kent, Allan McGregor, Scott Arfield and Filip Helander.
A number of fringe men are expected to follow while the incomings have already began with Kieran Dowell and Dujon Sterling both done after the duo penned pre-contract agreements from Norwich City and Chelsea.
