Youssef Chermiti faces a long recovery from anterior cruciate ligament damage sustained shortly after Rangers turned down an offer for the striker.
The 22-year-old Portuguese was injured during Sunday’s 2-1 home defeat to Hibernian as he collided with advertising boards following a jarring challenge.
A club announcement via social media states Chermiti “will be out of action for a significant period of time”.
He moved to Ibrox from Everton in September 2025, reportedly becoming Rangers’ most expensive purchase since Tore Andre Flo in 2000.
Capped at under-21 level by Portugal, the centre forward has made 43 Rangers appearances, 30 of them starts, scoring 15 goals.
