The Ibrox forward played for Colombia in the early hours of Wednesday morning in Santiago, Chile, before dashing back across the globe for Rangers’ clash with Celtic at Parkhead tomorrow.

The Rangers boss also offered an update on midfielders Joe Aribo and Bongani Zungu, plus forward Kemar Roofe.

"Bongani Zungu is currently in quarantine so we sadly won't see him for another 10 days or so. We have sorted him with gym equipment so he can train from home,” added Gerrard.

"Joe Aribo and Roofe are really close but this game may be a little bit too soon for them to return.”
