John Lundstram has revealed he has been playing with an injury for the last THREE weeks as he continues to battle through the pain barrier for Rangers.
The tough tackling midfielder is a key man for Giovanni van Bronckhorst and has established himself as a fans' favourite after a tough start to life in Glasgow when signed by former Ibrox boss and now Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard. A scan after the weekend win over Motherwell showed some tear and a 'skin' issue on his ankle.
The 28-year-old played the full 90 minutes once again as Rangers narrowly defeated Scottish Championship outfit Dundee to reach the semi-final of the Premier Sports Cup. They will now face Jim Goodwin's Aberdeen at Hampden as they bid to return to the national stadium in late February to compete for the first trophy of the season. Speaking to fellow Scouser Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett on his Chattin Pony podcast, the midfielder explained how a tear was explained to him but with no suggestion of further harm being caused, he's just been cracking on and putting the pain to the back of his mind.
