His injury record isn’t great but his goals record isn’t half bad. Michael Beale has never hidden his admiration for Kemar Roofe, particularly since returning to Ibrox as Rangers boss, and the numbers show exactly why.
If the £4.5 million signing from Anderlecht had been on the pitch more and less on the treatment table then we could be looking at a very different career at Ibrox.
Not that it’s been bad. Far from it. There was THAT goal against Standard Liege in Belgium, the home strike against Braga on the road to Seville and it was his goal against Aberdeen at Hampden that has them looking forward to the Viaplay Cup final against Celtic on Sunday.
The fact Roofe went off injured after netting against the Dons, recovered and is a doubt again for the final with yet another injury, sadly, is the story of the 30-year-old’s time in Glasgow.
