Rangers will face the Romanian Luis Suarez tomorrow night when they come up against Daniel Birligea, according to Steaua Bucharest's owner.
The Ibrox club welcome the Romanian side for the third game of the Europa League and are favourites to get a much-needed win for under-pressure boss Philippe Clement.
But they will have to watch out for Romanian international striker Birligea, who has netted four goals in his last five games including in both Europa League matches and against Dinamo Bucharest in the derby at the weekend.

And, according to outspoken president and owner Cica Becali, he's very similar to ex-Liverpool, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid legend Suarez, who is still going strong for Inter Miami at the age of 37.
Becali said: "He is 23 years old. Once he reaches 25, he will be as good as Luis Suarez.
"He's that kind of player and very similar to how Suarez plays.
"I have already put a £15 million release clause on him.
"To be honest, when we bought him from Cluj, I couldn't believe we got him for £2 million. I was expecting to pay £8 million or so.
"Birligea impressed me at Cluj. He ran until exhaustion.
"Someone passed to him and he said he couldn't do anything because he was so tired, but he still took it and managed to beat his opponent.
"But I didn't know he was so great. He amazes me. I thought it was good, but not like that.
"He scores match after match. He runs, he presses, he's aggressive and then when he gets the ball, he scores.
"We have never had a striker like him at Steaua."
