Rangers goalkeeper Jack Butland is ruled out of Thursday’s Old Firm clash with Celtic at the Ibrox Stadium after suffering internal bleeding in his leg, the Scottish Premiership club said.
The 31-year-old former England international required hospital treatment but has since been released and is recovering, Rangers added.
“I’ve suffered a significant bleed to my leg that needed hospital attention, thankfully that’s now under control and will lead to a full recovery hopefully sooner rather than later,” Butland posted on his Instagram story on Wednesday.
“Needless to say it’s come at an awful time and I was fully focussed on helping us as a club. The most important thing now is supporting the lads and focussing on getting fit again as soon as possible.”
