Cantwell reveals potential return date & hits back at Sutton

Todd Cantwell hopes to be back in action for Rangers immediately after the current international break.

The influential midfielder has been out since picking up a knee injury in September's Old Firm defeat to Celtic.

But the 25-year-old is aiming to be involved in Rangers' home encounter with Hibernian this coming Saturday, which will also be new manager Phillipe Clement's first game.

Speaking on The Beautiful Game Podcast, external, Cantwell also hit back at former Celtic striker Chris Sutton as their ongoing spat continues.

"I’d call him an attention seeker," he said. "I find it quite bizarre. For me, it isn’t even real. What he’s doing is playing up to his links with Celtic.

“He needs to stay relevant and that’s sad for me. If I’m an ex-player and I’m on Twitter, tweeting a 25-year-old and trying to stay relevant, I’d look at myself and go: ‘What am I doing?'.

"But that’s just me, I don’t know what he’s doing at home. Why are you so interested in Todd Cantwell? Why are you so interested in Rangers? You played for Celtic, fantastic, support Celtic."
