Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst insists his side are not taking Borussia Dortmund lightly - even if they are without Erling Haaland.

The Norwegian attacker is still absent through injury, and will miss the first leg of the Europa League round of 32 tie in Germany on Thursday between the two sides.

However, Van Bronckhorst acknowledged that Dortmund have more than enough quality to threaten Rangers, even without Haaland.

"Everyone recognises the talent he has, he is one of the top strikers in the world," said Van Bronckhorst, per Sky Sports.

"But Dortmund have been playing without him for weeks, so for me it is just about preparing for the players we will face.

"He is almost back to play, but it looks like he is not in the squad for Thursday."
