Michael Beale provides Raskin Rangers injury update as Goldson timeline detailed

Michael Beale has provided a Rangers injury update on Nico Raskin after the midfielder limped out of today's Premiership clash against Hibernian.

The Belgian youngster was forced off after 53 minutes and replaced by Scott Arfield.

On his midfielder, Beale explained: "He is okay. It was just a knee to knee.

"It just jolted him and we think he will be okay. 

"It was just a sore one and we didn't want to risk it.

"We have two more games to go and it doesn't seem like players are coming back from anywhere.

"That gives an opportunity to one or two younger ones and it is nice to see that.

"They have worked hard in the B team all year to get a opportunity and in the next two games I am sure there will be more opportunities for them."

On Connor Goldson, Beale added: "I think Connor will be out for about ten weeks.

"It is a problem with his foot. A real strange one, he landed on it last week in the game and he wanted to continue the last three or four minutes, he did. 

"He is in a boot at the moment and we are away to see a specialist.

"That is his season over. He will return back to being on the pitch working after six weeks and it might take him four weeks after that to be ready to play.

"Hopefully by the start of next season he is back."
