Gerrard said Rangers will do every thing they can to support Murphy in his recovery.

"Jamie has been excellent for me since day one," Gerrard told a news conference.

"We are trying to help him in every way we can to give him all the support he needs as he is a huge player for us.

"The important thing now is the player and his care and we will ensure he sees the experts and support him along his recovery."

Rangers next face Russian side Ufa in the first leg of their Europa League qualifying playoff at Ibrox on Thursday.
