Danilo has been extremely transparent with Rangers fans over the course of his recovery and has posted a number of progress videos and messages on social media. He last updated his followers at the beginning of March and he revealed he was ‘almost there’ in terms of making a comeback to the Rangers first-team squad. Now, Danilo has taken to his X account to share his latest positive update. Danilo is likely to be out for the rest of the season but Rangers fans will be holding onto hope that they can see him feature perhaps for one or two of the post-split fixtures. If he is fit for a couple of those games, there is a chance he won’t make the pitch even as a substitute anyway. It will depend on the gravity of the Scottish Premiership title race and the need for match-ready players to make a difference at a crucial stage. There’s a way to go before worrying about that, however, and the focus for Danilo at the moment is continuing is long and arduous recovery back to full fitness. On the evening of March 21, Danilo posted this message to his followers on X alongside a video of him in the gym: “Getting better, every day and can’t wait to be back on the pitch doing what I love the most”.Rangers director of football Nils Koppen, who joined the club four days before Danilo’s horror injury against Hearts in December, was keen to offer his support to Danilo with a reply.He simply reacted to the video with a 👌 emoji before Rangers fans inundated his post with summer signing recommendations including Lawrence Shankland and Kilmarnock’s David Watson. One fan said: “Get me some south American wonderkids and you can have whatever you want from me”.
