Ryan Naderi injury: Rangers star could be out for entire season as scans complete

Ryan Naderi could be ruled out for the rest of the season at Rangers.

Naderi scored his first Scottish Premiership goal in the 4-2 win over Dundee United on Saturday at Ibrox, but was forced off at half-time with an injury.

The German didn’t appear to have a huge issue, but an anxious wait has now begun for Danny Rohl.

Youssef Chermiti and Bojan Miovski came off the bench against the Tangerines, with the latter scoring, so depth isn’t a massive issue right now.

With injuries starting to hit Rangers at the worst point of the Scottish Premiership title race, this isn’t good news for anyone in blue.

Ryan Naderi scan results due back at Ibrox

Naderi is said to have undergone scans on the issue, with results due back soon.

The Daily Record has reported that Naderi is sweating on those results, which could actually end his season with only six games remaining.

Naderi’s senior career statistics

Rangers travel to Falkirk on Sunday ahead of the split, which will see the Bears go against Celtic and Hearts in the race for the title.

With Chermiti missing yet another huge chance on Saturday, this could be a huge blow to any chances of the title returning to Ibrox after years away.

Danny Rohl has options available to replace Ryan Naderi

Chermiti has obviously blown hot and cold since arriving from Everton, but his record of only scoring in the big games could suit him perfectly.

With the split coming up, games away at Celtic Park and Tynecastle will likely decide the title, so Chermiti could be huge in those games.

Miovski has started to find form at the right time, too, despite not being fully trusted, it seems.

The Macedonian saw a goal disallowed against Aberdeen, before smartly finding the net versus Dundee United, so that is handy.

With Tuur Rommens also injured right now, Rangers are starting to lose some big names at exactly the wrong time, but this is what all that money has been spent on.

Squad depth has improved dramatically under the American ownership and Rohl, so now it is time for them to put that to work when it is needed most.
