Everything we know about Rommens' Rangers contract after Ibrox injury admission

Tuur Rommens will be out for Rangers until the end of April, Danny Rohl has confirmed.

The German manager confirmed that an anonymous player was set to be out before the Scottish Premiership split, and it was later revealed to be the Belgian.

The 23-year-old has started his career brilliantly with the Ibrox side, making eight appearances in all competitions.

However, he is set to miss the clash with Falkirk on 12 April and the trip to Spain for a warm-weather training camp.

Rangers will miss Rommens while he is on the sidelines, and Ibrox News looks at his contract situation after the admission from Rohl.

What did Rohl say about Rommens’ injury?

Rommens has taken the starting job as Rangers’ left-back, with Jayden Meghoma having to settle for a place on the substitutes’ bench.

However, the Englishman will likely come back into the side after the injury blow for the former Westerlo man.

The Gers boss said that the Belgian suffered a knock in training ahead of the clash with Jim Goodwin’s side, which will see him out for a while.

He said: “Unfortunately, he got a muscle injury on Thursday. It happens in football.

“How long he is out, hopefully not too long. I think he will not be available for a minimum of two more games, then we will see.

“But we still have one more week, this is the good part before the split – we have this one break that helps a lot.”

What is his contract situation?

Rommens signed a three-and-a-half-year contract with the Light Blues when he made the move to Govan.

That means that his current deal is set to expire in June 2029, so Gers fans will likely see a lot more of him.

The deal gives the G51 side security, in terms of clubs that may want to swoop and sign the talented defender, if he continues to perform.

How has he performed for Rangers so far?

Rommens has been fantastic since making the move to Scottish football.

In six appearances in the Scottish Premiership, he has scored one goal and notched one assist, while creating four big chances for his teammates, per Sofascore.

He has recorded 2.7 key passes per game and an 81 per cent pass completion, showing that he is comfortable on the ball.

Defensively, he has made 1.5 interceptions, 1.3 tackles, 2.5 balls recovered, and 2.5 clearances per game.

He is particularly adept in the air, winning 71 per cent of his duels there, while only winning 48 per cent on the ground.

If he keeps up those numbers once he returns, he will play a huge part in potentially helping the Auchenhowie side to the title.
