Maurice Edu has declared his knee surgery a success and intends to battle back for a Rangers first team spot. The United States international, 23, can expect to be sidelined for up to three months after going under the knife at the end of the campaign.
Speaking on his own website, www.mauriceedu.com, he said: "Surgery went well and all parties involved were happy with the result.
"Now is the annoying part as I'm on crutches for four to six weeks.
"I'm out for possibly three months but I'll get some time to go home and see my family for a little bit so that's good.
"I'm just staying positive and keeping my head down and I'm anxious to start my rehab. I need to get fit and get my knee healthy and strong.
"From there, I just need to fight hard and earn a spot back in the starting line-up because this season was great."
He added: "Winning the double was amazing so I hope we can do that again as well as hopefully winning the treble because that would be a crazy experience.
"I also want to play in the Champions League and do well there as that's been a dream of mine since I was young.
"It'll definitely be a challenge but we're confident we can compete and hopefully we'll do well.
"I'm just trying to take the momentum from the end of last season into next year and try to get into the line-up again."
