Shankland confirms hamstring surgery was necessary; expects three to four months recovery with close monitoring.
Rangers captain Lawrence Shankland has undergone surgery on his hamstring injury, which forced him off four minutes into last month's win over Motherwell.

He expects recovery to take around three to four months, with the timeline dependent on how the injury feels during rehabilitation under physiotherapy supervision.
