Philippe Clement has provided an injury update on his squad following Rangers' 4-0 win over Steaua Bucharest tonight.

Tom Lawrence had to be replaced by Mohamed Diomande at half time after taking a knock to his calf right at the end of the first half. 

The Wales international scored the opening goal on the night, with Vaclav Cerny adding a double, and Hamza Igamane scoring his first goal for the club.

But he had to come off, as did Cyriel Dessers - who marched down the tunnel straight after being subbed - and Leon Balogun.

"I'm not an eye specialist," the Belgian said in response when asked if Dessers would be okay for this weekend's match against St Mirren after he lost his sight following a collision with a Steaua player.

"I've a lot of things to do at this club, but that's not one of those things. We will see how he is in the next couple of days.

"Tom Lawrence got a bad knock, so we need to see how he is and what we can do with that. 

"Leon Balogun cramped, so I don't think it's a big issue."

On the Dessers situation, Clement added: "He apologised for that.

"He was so emotional. He was hungry to score, hungry to play good for the team.

"He got a knock on his eye and lost eyesight. He could not see anything any more or not enough to play so he was emotional in that moment because he didn't want to come off. But he could not play.

"Afterwards he said, 'Sorry manager I should have stayed longer and sit down and give time for the rest' but it was an emotional reaction of a player who is very hungry to play."
