Ange Postecoglou will move Reo Hatate back into his familiar midfield role with Josip Juranovic ready for a return against Rangers.
The Celtic World Cup star was on the bench against Hibs on Wednesday night after only returning to training for a day following his Qatar exploits with Croatia. Hatate filled in the right-back role at Easter Road and the previous outing with Anthony Ralston struggling with a knock and new signing Alistair Johnston unavailable. His performances earned an 'excelled' verdict from his boss - but he's ready to move him back up the pitch.
Discussing Hatate's role at Ibrox and addressing the right-back position, Postecoglou said: “Josip was ready on Wednesday night against Hibs but had only been with us for a day. I felt it would have been a bit unfair just to throw him in. If I did, he’d have been ready and willing, no problem. So he’s ready to go now and has trained the last few days so there are no issues with him for Monday.
