Rangers See Bid Rejected for Sheffield United Ace Amid 'Significant' Injury to Star
Rangers said the 22-year-old striker will miss a significant period after scans confirmed an ACL injury that likely ends his season.
- On Sunday, Rangers striker Youssef Chermiti suffered an ACL injury during the 2-1 Scottish Premiership defeat to Hibs at Ibrox, with the 22-year-old Portuguese forward stretchered off in the first half.
- The injury occurred hours after Rangers rejected a £22m bid from Turkish champions Galatasaray, as club hierarchy intimated they have no interest in conducting business at that price point.
- Following assessment, Rangers confirmed the ACL damage, noting that full recovery from an anterior cruciate ligament injury typically takes six to 12 months; Chermiti will likely miss the entire season.
- Reports indicate Rangers are considering a move for Portland Timbers striker Kevin Kelsy to provide cover, while also renewing interest in Sheffield United striker Ryan Naderi.
- Manager Derek McInnes has Lawrence Shankland, Naderi, and Bojan Miovski available as senior centre-forward options, with Naderi having scored five goals in 16 league appearances this season.
