Scottish Rangers striker Youssef Shermit suffered a serious injury to the anterior cruciate ligament during the week-long match against Hibernian, which ended in a 1:2 defeat for his team..

The incident was traced to a sharp attack on a football player against advertising boards behind the goal.. After the fall, the Portuguese immediately raised his hand, signaling the need for medical assistance. The application to the club confirmed its greatest battles.

This injury came at the most opportune moment, and even on the same day, the Rangers team created a solid proposal for the transfer of the Portuguese. According to ZMI, the champion of Turkey Galatasaray paid about 22 million pounds sterling for the attacker.

At the shareholders' meeting, the head of the board, Andrew Kaven, made the decision of the club not to take any advantage of the transfer interest:.

“Those who want to throw out an unanswered proposition on one arkush paper do not mean that the grave can be learned from an effectively important match.”.

The head coach of the team, Derek McInnes, is also positive that the amount deposited did not correspond to the club:.

“It’s not surprising that Vine Gravec has a high price and high potential, but we are now trying to build a team and supplement it with the good guys we have, including Youssef.”.

The loss of Shermiti was a significant blow for the team from Glasgow. Having moved to Ibrox from the English Everton in the spring of 2025, becoming the most expensive addition to the club from Tore Andre Flo in the year 2000. The Portugal U-21 centre-forward made 43 appearances for Rangers (30 of them in the starting line-up) and scored 15 goals.

Now McInnes faces a difficult task - to find an effective replacement for the leader of the attack ahead of the important European League qualifying match against the Polish Jagiellonian Republic. The current reserves of Lawrence Shankland, Ryan Nader and Boyan Miovski (who have not yet played a single match under the new coach) do not yet contradict the performance.

However, there is hope: the head of Kavenagh has already announced that the club plans to sign three to five new players in the near future, and the search for a scoring forward will now, obviously, become priority number one.
