Danny Röhl confirms Rangers injury worries ahead of Falkirk trip

Danny Röhl has met the media this morning ahead of Rangers’ trip to Falkirk on Sunday, the German head coach opened by providing a clear injury update on both Ryan Naderi and Tuur Rommens.

“Ryan Naderi has a serious injury. We have assessed him, but we will just take it week by week. We are monitoring him, and we don’t know if he will be back before the end of the season. Ryan has made a great impact since his arrival. It’s football, but we have a lot of players who can fill in.

Tuur Rommens had one more treatment this week. This weekend will be too early, but we are hoping for the first/second game in the split, but that depends. We are prepared for Falkirk this weekend. It will be a good game; we want to finish strong ahead of the split.”

Due to their exit from the Scottish Cup at the hands of Celtic in the quarter-final, Rangers will have two weeks to prepare for their all-important post-split fixtures following Sunday’s match. The squad will head to Spain for a brief training camp, with Röhl saying, “It is a great opportunity to be together and have a good week of training. We will be focused on returning to five finals.”

The Glasgow giants are still very much in the title race, as they find themselves just a single point behind Hearts, and two in front of cross-city rivals Celtic, following a tumultuous season for both Glasgow sides.

Röhl rounded off his press conference with something of a battle cry ahead of the remaining games. “We have tough games in the split from home games to away games, but it’s exciting, and we will be prepared for every game. We know the situation currently that we are only one point away from Hearts, we aren’t looking too far ahead to the final game of the season, where we go back to Falkirk, but we are really focused on the next game and good training sessions. We have the mentality and the belief to finish the season well and on top.”
