Rangers striker in “back soon” pledge after taking big step in return from injury

Zak Lovelace, a striker with the Rangers, intends to rejoin the first squad “shortly” after recovering from an injury with the B team.

Three players, including the 18-year-old striker, returned to the Rangers starting lineup after suffering an injury during a B team

friendly against Carlisle United.

Lovelace has been sidelined with a serious hamstring injury sustained in October during what was his first start for the first-team in

the eventual 3-0 win over St Mirren.

The striker got 45 minutes in the Rangers Training Centre bounce match v Carlisle – which finished 1-1 – and Lovelace claimed

afterwards that he hopes it’s the start of a more serious recovery.

Zak Lovelace eyeing Rangers return

After playing a key role for the B Team in the team’s friendly match against Carlisle United, Zak Lovelace spoke with RangersTV.

The striker, who expressed satisfaction with the way his injury has healed so far, is focused on getting back to full fitness and form

before joining the team again.

“I felt pretty content,” Lovelace remarked. David McCallum had previously informed me that I might start.

Thus, I had to simply prepare myself psychologically to begin anew and kind of advance to my previous position.

“Dude, it feels great. Nothing has actually gone wrong with it.

As I previously stated, my goal is to return to my previous level of sharpness and where I was.

“I’ll hopefully be returning soon, but I still need to work out a few issues.

“I’m hoping to get 60 against Dundee and then keep going to get 90 the next game.”

Several of Rangers’ peripheral first-team players were sent down for B Team/Academy service against Carlisle United, per manager

Philippe Clement’s orders.
