Ex-Celtic player supports former teammate as Rangers get significant injury boost.
A Celtic player’s former colleague has encouraged him to make an impact when he returns from injury; in the meantime, Rangers have received a significant boost.
The Scottish Premiership will resume this weekend, after the completion of the present international break. What has been occurring in Scotland’s top flight today?
A former Celtic teammate has lavished him with praise in an interview; meanwhile, Rangers have received a significant injury boost to one of their key players.
Rangers get big Ridvan Yilmaz injury boost.
Ridvan Yilmaz suffered an injury while on international duty, forcing him to withdraw from the Turkey team; nevertheless, the situation is not as terrible as initially assumed.
A source close to Yilmaz told the Daily Record: “We’re expecting the recuperation process will take only seven to ten days. Fortunately, the damage was not severe. While we don’t want to provide a specific date, we’re hopeful he’ll be in the squad or, better still, on the pitch against Celtic.
Joe Ledley believes James Forrest will be ready to go when he returns from injury.
Joe Ledley, who has known James Forrest from the beginning of his playing career, believes his old comrade will have an influence when he returns from injury.
Ledley told the Daily Record, “It’s great to see him getting some more minutes on the pitch now because he’s been unfortunate with injuries throughout his career and this season.” Having someone with that much experience on the training ground and bringing players on is invaluable at any time, but especially during the season.
“What a tremendous career he has had with Celtic. I remember when I signed him, he was just breaking into the first team, and I’m sure Lenny gave him his debut. Even back then, it was clear that he would be an exceptional player. He had the speed and the balance, and he simply kept refining his game.”
