Rangers Star Nedim Bajrami Injury ‘Worse Than Initially Feared’

Rangers manager Danny Rohl has confirmed that Nedim Bajrami’s injury is worse than initially feared as his squad prepare to face Ferencvaros in the Europa League on Thursday.

The Gers are looking to rescue something from what has been a disastrous Europa League campaign so far. Rohl’s side currently sit in 33rd position having failed to win a game in the competition this season, picking up just one point. The Glasgow giants have conceded nine goals, scoring just twice.

A win this week could see them climb up to 28th if results go their way, but it’s looking like they are going to fail to qualify as it stands.

Danny Rohl: Bajrami Injury Worse Than First Feared

Speaking ahead of Rangers’ game against Ferencvaros, Rohl has provided an update on the injury situation of his squad. The Rangers boss has confirmed that Bajrami’s injury is worse than initially feared after a scan revealed a muscle problem, while Lyall Cameron is a doubt.

It’s unclear how long Bajrami is going to be out for, but it’s more positive news for Dujon Sterling. Rohl went on to say that Sterling is a ‘special’ guy, and he expects the defender to get some minutes against Ferencvaros.

Focus Surely on Premiership for Rangers

With Rangers picking up some decent form under Rohl in the Scottish Premiership, the boss will surely be focusing their efforts on domestic action, with their Europa League campaign such a struggle at the moment. Rangers are currently just six points behind Glasgow rivals Celtic, and despite their difficulties, they have only lost once in the league this season.

A win in the Europa League this week would give Rangers a huge boost, and it’s a game that shouldn’t be written off, but it certainly wouldn’t be a surprise to see Rohl rest some players ahead of a tricky couple of games domestically against Hibernian and Hearts.

Rohl has already hinted at some minutes for Sterling, perhaps suggesting that there could be a bit of rotation throughout the game for Rangers.
