Rangers fans: Cortes is 'out for the season' after 'terrible' injury news

Rangers fans have been left fuming after Oscar Cortes left the field injured during the opening Scottish Premiership clash v Hearts.

Dropping points in the first game of the season is a far-from-ideal situation for Philippe Clement’s side after a turbulent pre-season, and has been made worse by the injury blow.

The winger limped off shortly after half-time after initially seeming to suffer the knock before the break, raising questions as to why he was brought back out.

This comes after Cortes spent a large period in the second half of last season on the treatment table, putting an early end to his initial loan spell.

Now, after yet another injury blow, Rangers fans are questioning the reason behind bringing him back to Ibrox despite the apparent injury issues.

Cortes missed 11 games through injury last season, having only arrived in January, but there were hopes that he could make an impact following his return.

Rangers agreed to sign him on loan for another year, this time with an obligation to buy from Lens at the end, raising concerns about his potential new blow.

Fans are now speculating about the extent of his injury, with predictions starting at a potential of six months out, while others suggested he could miss the rest of the season.

In other news, Rangers are in the market for a top-class forward before the window closes.
