Rangers squad revealed for RB Leipzig as Joe Aribo ready to fill striking void

Manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst takes his Rangers side to Germany with no fresh injury issues.

But the Ibrox boss must find a solution to the absence of both Kemar Roofe and Alfredo Morelos for Thursday night's Europa League semi-final first leg against RB Leipzig.

Fashion Sakala has deputised as a central striker earlier in the campaign but van Bronckhorst has other, and perhaps more fitting, options at his disposal.

It's been speculated he could deploy a false nine, possibly in Joe Aribo, to keep Sakala's pace on the flanks.

Leipzig are also contending with absences of their own, with midfielder Kevin Kampl and defenders Willi Orban and Mohamed Simakan suspended.
