‘Broke Something’ – Rangers boss confirms latest ‘Bad Injury’ news after Livingston
Leon Balogun sustained a “bad injury” in the Rangers’ 3-0 victory against Livingston, and Philippe Clement has stated that he may
have a facial fracture.
Following a collision of heads in the first half at Ibrox, the Nigerian international defender was forced to leave the game with a
concussion, as acknowledged by the manager of the Gers after the final whistle on February 3.
As one of the Light Blues’ many absences due to injuries, Danilo missed
six games in all competitions before due to a broken cheek
“It is not good because it is a bad injury, he probably broke something in his face,” Clement stated, as reported by Glasgow World. The
good news is that he is a veteran and a warrior who has dealt with similar situations in the past.
“I hope that’s the case because he thinks he can return quickly with a mask on.
The medical professionals must make that determination.

In terms of injury luck there seems to be no such thing at Ibrox, with Balogun hurt in a freak accident that could happen at any time.
Rangers don’t have an abundance of choices at center back, and the 35-year-old will not be receiving a look in there as Clement made
revisions to Michael Beale’s initial pick, which unfortunately left him out of the updated Europa League roster.
With a title fight well and fully underway following another win and two more points lost by Celtic following their draw in Aberdeen,
he will undoubtedly want to return as soon as possible to play in domestic games.
It would be extremely detrimental for the Light Blues to lose Balogun for an extended period of time, especially when they currently
lack players like Danilo, Abdallah Sima, Kemar Roofe, Kieran Dowell, and Ben Davies.
It will undoubtedly help if he can return while wearing a mask, but he cannot be hurried
back if there is a chance he could suffer a concussion.
Losing more players to injury is the last thing this team needs to jeopardize its momentum going into the business end of the season,
since numbers are already scarce in some areas even with the reinforcements made in the January window.
A player who is expected to sign with Rangers has expressed regret
for a “incident” that occurred during the transfer window.
