Rangers manager expresses sympathy as Ibrox forward is ruled out

After it was revealed that Danilo, a forward for the Rangers, would not be able to play again until the end of the season due to a knee injury, Philippe Clement offered his condolences to the player.

The Brazilian, who cost £5.6 million to sign when he left Feyenoord in the summer,

hasn’t played since the start of last month’s thrilling Premiership victory over Hearts at Tynecastle.

Ben Davies, 24, is a long way from making a comeback,

according to Clement, who hopes to see him back in action next week and has Ryan Jack and Tom Lawrence available for selection once more.

After the league game in Gorgie, Danilo had to have knee surgery.

It was believed that he would be able to play after the winter break.

However, Clement clarified, “No, it was a really severe injury,”

as he got ready for today’s Scottish Cup fourth-round match against Dumbarton at The Rock. It’s a typical issue.

“We cannot talk about a rehab that lasts for three or four weeks.

We’ll see. For the final game of the season, we won’t push things.

That is also incredibly foolish.

Seeing that it is 2,000% certain is preferable.

He is making significant progress toward his recovery.

The way he twisted his knee was, to put it mildly, an unfortunate tackle.

It’s unfortunate because he was developing and we were accomplishing a lot of wonderful things.

He had a great time playing football and felt great about the team.

“I always find it unfortunate to witness a player sustain an injury.

You don’t want to watch your children suffer because they’re all like my children.

Tom and Ryan are free, but not until an hour and a half.

Building the story with them is the goal.

In the meanwhile, Clement has emphasized that,

should the surface at The Rock pass an inspection this afternoon at 1pm,

he will select his strongest team to play Dumbarton.

He also expects his players to give it their all and advance to the next round,

regardless of the playing circumstances.

“Dumbarton has been contacted,” he declared.

“However, once the pitch is ready or frozen, we are powerless to alter its state.

The field cannot be covered with a roof to prevent water from flowing over it.

It’s been captured on video. I considered going there to have a look at first,

but I decided against it since I now knew that anything I did would have an impact everywhere.

“The pitch is really bad, but it is what it is,” Clement continued.

As I’ve stated previously, I don’t want my players to make excuses.

As I already stated, we will play on the parking lot if it is necessary for us to win games.

“The caliber of work I anticipate from my players? It’s not the same football if it’s on that level.

You are aware that there are more errors and less fluid passes than usual.

However, you must mentally adjust to your roles as a coach and a player.

It all comes down to winning that match and moving on to the next phase. That is the most crucial thing.
