Danny Rohl Explains Why Youssef Chermiti and Djeidi Gassama Will Miss Rangers’ Match Against Falkirk
Rangers manager Danny Rohl has confirmed that key attacking duo Youssef Chermiti and Djeidi Gassama will miss the club’s upcoming clash against Falkirk, providing clarity for fans ahead of the Scottish Premiership fixture.
Both players have been important contributors for Rohl’s side this season, with Chermiti impressing in attack and Gassama providing pace and creativity on the wing. Their absence, however, is due to minor injuries sustained in recent training sessions, with Rohl emphasizing the need to prioritize their long-term fitness.
Speaking ahead of the match, Rohl said:
“Youssef and Djeidi won’t be available for Falkirk. They picked up knocks in training, and while nothing is serious, it’s important we manage their recovery carefully. We can’t risk aggravating these injuries, especially with the busy schedule coming up.”
The manager also reassured fans that both players are expected to return soon and remain central to Rangers’ plans for the rest of the season.
“Both are working hard in the gym and on the treatment pitch,” Rohl added. “We hope to have them back for the next couple of games. They’ve been crucial for us, and their health comes first.”
Rangers will now look to their squad depth to navigate the Falkirk match, which remains a key opportunity to maintain momentum in the Premiership.
With Chermiti and Gassama sidelined, other attacking options are likely to step up, giving younger players a chance to make their mark under Rohl’s guidance.
Fans will be keeping a close eye on team news ahead of kickoff, but the message from Rohl is clear: Chermiti and Gassama are out for this fixture, but their return is a matter of weeks, not months.
