Rangers head coach Barry Ferguson has declared Leon Balogun fit for his side’s UEFA Europa League clash against Atletico Bilbao.
The quarter-final second leg fixture will hold at the San Mames, Barria, Bilbao on Thursday (today).
Balogun was in action for 90 minutes in the first leg 0-0 draw with Ernest Valverde’s men at the Ibrox last week.
The 36-year-old however missed the Light Blues’ 2-2 draw at Aberdeen last weekend due to a minor injury.

Ferguson confirmed Balogun trained with his teammates ahead of the game on Wednesday.
“It’s good news,” Ferguson told the media. “Leon Balogun trained. Ridvan, Cerny, trained, and Rice all trained,” the gaffer told a press conference.
“So hopefully, when they wake up tomorrow, there’s been no issues and as I said, hopefully we’re going to be strong. Also, we’ve got John Souttar and Diomande back.
“Things are looking pretty healthy, but as I said, I just need to wait until tomorrow morning, I speak to the medical staff and hopefully I get the thumbs on.”
