Rangers dilemma as clock ticks on Cyriel Dessers absence news While Philippe Clement was aware that he would inherit

certain issues at Rangers, he now faces a whole new set of challenges following Cyriel Dessers’ call-up for the Africa Cup of Nations.

signature of a loan Shooting practice may be a lonely affair for Fabio Silva, and the manager of the Gers would have realized he needed

more firepower even before the Nigerian striker dilemma surfaced.

These are Clement’s choices if Cyriel Dessers gets called up. Rangers are still in three tournaments and don’t

want a repetition of 2022, when we ran out of strikers and steam.

To a certain extent, nothing changes.

Danilo and Kemar Roofe might not play again this season given their respective injury problems.

The loss of Danilo in particular is a huge blow given how much better we look with him leading the line.

The squad already needed more depth up front, whether this is on loan or a permanent replacement is sought for Roofe now,

something has to be done.

Zak Lovelace was extremely unfortunate because he had made his way into the first team, looked fantastic,

and then sustained a serious hamstring injury. Ross McCausland is receiving minutes that may have been his.

Being more accustomed to playing through the middle, he should be close to full fitness when football resumes after the break and

contribute to the forward line’s versatility.

I admire Lovelace because of his natural ability to outpace defenders with his raw speed.

Moving Abdallah Sima centrally would be the logical choice if he wasn’t with Senegal.

In the event that Cyriel Dessers is absent, Rangers supporters may witness a completely different lineup.

Clement recounted witnessing Rabbi Matondo play center field in Belgium, while Sam Lammers established himself as an elite nine.

Ruud van Nistelrooy’s performances are unmatched anywhere else, however his tenure may be limited.

With Cyriel Dessers only expected to be out for a few weeks, the most likely scenario is that Rangers will try to get a loan agreement

and then search for more long-term solutions in the summer. Still, it would be lovely to be taken by surprise.
