Another appearance for Dembele?

This seemed a very unlikely option earlier in the season. One player who appeared to be on the verge of a first-team breakthrough was Karamoko Dembele. Yet, he has rarely featured throughout the course of this season.

But then, in the last match away at Aberdeen, Dembele was on the bench and came on as a substitute replacing Scott Brown in the 80th minute as the Hoops looked for an equaliser.

Now, Dembele has been one of the most highly-rated talents at the club for quite some time, but he is yet to get too many chances in the first-team. Perhaps a new management team coming in could change that.

His appearance at Pittodrie means some game time at Ibrox is not out of the question. He’d offer something different and could cause some problems for the Rangers.

Of course, even then, one would not expect him to start. But an appearance off the bench is very possible.
