Senior player axed - Rangers confirmed XI v Malmo named as Clement picks Jefte replacement

Rangers are set to take on Malmo in the UEFA Europa League on 26 September with Philippe Clement naming his playing eleven.

Neraysho Kasanwirjo makes his first start for the Glasgow club and he comes into the eleven in place of Jefte while Dujon Sterling is also dropped to the bench.

The game is set to kick off at 5:45pm at the Eleda Stadion in Malmo, Sweden.

Rangers must pick up the three points against Malmo

Gers will want to get their Europa League campaign underway on the right note and a win against their Swedish counterparts will certainly help achieve that.

Clement’s side have been under pressure after a poor start to the domestic season, but a good result in Europe could help bring the positivity back to Ibrox.

The Belgian has named a strong eleven that should make things difficult for the hosts and hopefully, Gers can edge it come the full-time whistle.

An away victory will be priceless for the Ibrox outfit as they’ll shoot up the table and their chances of finishing in the top eight will skyrocket.

It will also give the side much-needed momentum going into the game against Hibs over the weekend.

Hopefully, the travel does not take too much out of the players and they’re ready to go once again at Ibrox on Sunday.

In other Rangers news, multiple meetings have been held by the club as a behind-the-scenes appointment is on the cards.
