Kemar Roofe has been working to get back to full fitness after missing Rangers' pre-season warm-weather camp in Portugal.
The Light Blues star suffered with injuries towards the end of last season and after a brief return to action he pulled up at the start of the pre-season return and is working hard with an elite physio in order to get himself back and ready ahead of a big campaign for Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men. The 29-year-old is said to be a major doubt for the Premiership opener against Livingston at the Tony Macaroni Arena on July 30, but he is doing all he can to get back to full fitness.

Roofe can be seen putting weight on his leg as he makes an up and down movement while lifting the exercise bar.
Writing on his social media page, physio Andy said: "Great to have @roofe with me for a few days last week working his way back from a calf injury.
"Progressions that include functional positions are integral to go back to sport, and stay back."
Roofe shared the video to his own page with the caption: "Good solid week of work with @andyphysio."
Van Bronckhorst will be hoping for a quick return to action for the attacker with Champions League qualifiers on the horizon. The Light Blues need to navigate two rounds of qualifying to join Celtic in the tournament proper and mix it with Europe's big boys.
