Philippe Clement in coy Rangers injury update as boss considers Celtic ‘risks’
Philippe Clement has offered a coy injury update for Rangers fans ahead of this weekend’s Scottish Cup Final vs Celtic.
The two Glasgow giants go head to head one last time this season for the silverware after the Hoops saw off their foes to lift the Premiership title last weekend. Clement has been missing a number of key players through injury in recent weeks and now he has intimated that some have made it back before the showpiece Hampden finale. However he would not be drawn into specifics as he revealed he “doesn’t want to say too much”.
“I don’t wanna say too much about the squad, this is the final game, a decisive game so maybe we need to take some risks with players that we normally don’t do because there’s a season coming after,” he said. “I don’t wanna get too much into which player is ready and who can start or not. I did it all season, every occasion, every three days with you guys, this one I don’t want to speak much about that.
“We need to make changes, it is clear, it is our ambition to make the club better but first we need to focus on the now – and to grab the moment. We didn’t grab the big moments in our previous Old Firms.”
