Rangers center-back, Leon Balogun finds himself in the spotlight as a significant fitness concern for his side ahead of their crucial trip to Celtic Park on Saturday. Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
Balogun, 35, was substituted at halftime during Rangers' commanding 4-1 victory over Kilmarnock last weekend.
His absence raises questions about his availability for the impending showdown against their arch-rivals.
Having recently returned to the starting lineup following Connor Goldson's season-ending injury, Balogun's potential absence adds another layer of complexity to Rangers' defensive setup.
Manager Philippe Clement acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding Balogun's fitness, stating, "Leon Balogun is doubtful, with no other fresh injuries or players returning from injury."
With Rangers trailing Celtic by three points in the Scottish Premiership table, Balogun's potential absence could have significant implications for the title race.
