“Sadly, he’s out for…” – Rodgers Painfully Announce the WORRISOME News of Celtic Player’s INJURY as He is to be Sidelined for….

Celtic Suffer Fresh Injury Blow as Rangers Legend Kris Boyd Rubbishes Ibrox Manager Myth

The Scottish Premiership is set to resume this weekend, with Celtic and Rangers preparing to face off in crucial matches. However, the Hoops have been dealt a significant blow with the news that midfielder Paulo Bernardo will be out of action for up to five weeks.

Bernardo, who has been instrumental in Celtic’s success this season, suffered an ankle knock in the Scottish Cup win over Raith Rovers. Initial hopes that the Portuguese playmaker would recover in time to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League playoff second leg have been dashed, with subsequent scan results revealing the damage to be worse than expected.

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers confirmed the news, stating: “Paulo has got his ankle in a boot. So yeah, he’ll be maybe four or five weeks. Paulo’s obviously done great for us this season and what we’ve tried to do with all the players is try and show we keep them fit by rotating and maximising the whole squad.”

Rodgers added: “Obviously, sadly, he’s out for another little while. But like you say, we’ve still got good numbers in that position. With so many games, it’s needed.”

Meanwhile, Rangers legend Kris Boyd has weighed in on the debate surrounding the future of Ibrox manager Philippe Clement. Boyd, who played for the Gers between 2005 and 2010, rubbished claims that Clement deserves more time in the hot seat, insisting that the club’s hierarchy can continue to change managers until they find the right appointment.

Speaking on the Warm-Up show, Boyd said: “I’m not buying into this myth, to be honest. Everyone’s saying you can’t keep changing managers… but you have to until you get the right one.”

Boyd continued: “People forget, Rangers are at one point last year were favourites to win the league and managed to mess it up. There’s been an overhaul recently because they had to cut back. If you can look at the manager and say there’s players improving, then carry on.”

The former Rangers striker added: “But as it stands right now, I don’t see that. I see a team that’s struggling, I see a team that’s lacking identity. You’re hoping something’s going to happen… at Rangers and Celtic you go onto the pitch and make things happen. You force the opposition.”

Boyd’s comments come as Rangers prepare to face off against their arch-rivals Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. The match promises to be a thrilling encounter, with both teams looking to gain the upper hand in the title race.

In other news, Celtic are still reeling from their 2-1 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League playoff first leg. The Hoops will be looking to overturn the deficit when they face the Bundesliga giants in the return leg next week.

With the Scottish Premiership title race heating up, Celtic and Rangers will be looking to strengthen their squads in the summer transfer window. The two Glasgow giants are already eyeing up new signings, with several players being linked with moves to the Scottish Premiership.

As the season reaches its climax, Celtic and Rangers will be looking to make a push for the title. With the stakes higher than ever, the two teams will be giving it their all in the pursuit of glory.

In conclusion, the news that Paulo Bernardo will be out of action for up to five weeks is a significant blow for Celtic. However, the Hoops have a strong squad and will be looking to bounce back from this setback. Meanwhile, Kris Boyd’s comments on Philippe Clement’s future at Rangers have added fuel to the fire, with the Ibrox manager’s position under increasing scrutiny.
