Rangers defender Filip Helander is self-isolating after becoming the first Ibrox player to test positive for coronavirus, the Light Blues have announced.
The Sweden centre-back was missing from Steven Gerrard's team for their Betfred Cup round two clash at Falkirk.
The club announced on Twitter that the 27-year-old has become the club's first confirmed Covid-19 case.
He will also have to sit out Gers' Europa League clash with Standard Liege as well as next Sunday's Premiership trip to Ross County.
