The Story in 60 Seconds

Rangers attacking midfielder Minsu Kim has been withdrawn from the South Korea Under-21 squad for their upcoming friendlies against Morocco due to injury. The 20-year-old was substituted after 74 minutes during Rangers' 2-0 win over St Mirren on Saturday, with the Korean Football Association confirming he suffered an injury that rules him out of international duty. Suwon Samsung's Kim Gyeol has been called up as his replacement.

While the KFA cited an injury as the reason for his withdrawal, the issue is reportedly not expected to keep him sidelined for Rangers' upcoming fixture against Motherwell. Kim, who joined Rangers in the summer for a reported £8.5 million fee, will instead use the international break to rest ahead of a busy domestic schedule.
