Rangers assistant Gary McAllister has issued a positive update on his recovery following a brutal attack on the streets of Leeds.
The former Liverpool and Scotland midfielder reportedly lost three teeth and required 12 stitches following the shocking incident last month.
There were suggestions the assailant may have been wearing a knuckle duster or similar device, while he was reported to have hospitalised four other people, including two women.
McAllister subsequently missed the Gers’ 2-1 defeat to Celtic on March 31, but returned to the dugout for the two most recent matches.
And now he has spoken out about the assault and revealed he is on the road to recovery.
“It was a bit of a shock to the system as you can imagine,†he told talkSPORT.
“But I’m fully on the mend and it’s nice to be back on the bench alongside everyone at Rangers.

“What I would like to say, at times football gets a bad rep but it’s been quite humbling the support from everybody in football.
“I have had lots of messages and I can’t thank people enough.
