Youssef Ramalho Chermiti Injuries

'Youssef is going to be out for a while - longer than we'd hoped - it's not going to be days; it's going to be weeks.' 'Chermiti is back on the grass today. I think four weeks - three to four weeks - we have a chance of having him back.' 'He's had two days on the grass. I think just the length of time he's been out for is what we're a little bit more worried about. He's done quite a bit of training, but not football training yet. We've got him back in and around the training group at the moment.'

'[Broja] will get some minutes again today, as will Youssef on his journey back to full fitness, which is good. AB is in front of Youssef. This is only Youssef’s starting point...' 'Youssef is getting stronger but not there yet.' 'He completed another game the other day and did very well. He's worked very hard to get fit, so we'll take it on an ongoing basis, but he's training really well.'

'Youssef has one that will take a while. We're a bit disappointed in that. I thought he was going well in pre-season, and that's not going to be a short one - not by the looks of things.' 'Youssef had a minor operation, but that's going to be weeks rather than days - he's in good shape.' 'Youssef is making good progress, but obviously quite a long-term injury. 'Youssef has been incredibly unlucky. He's making good progress now. He's on the grass with the sports science team.' 'Chermiti is making progress but, obviously, it's a very strange injury with the tendon coming off the big toe - a very odd injury. He's beginning to make progress, but he's still a number of weeks away, that's for sure.' 'Youssef is making good progress as well. He's slightly behind [Broja in terms of his rehab] - but he had his first full day with us today. That's pleasing because he's worked very hard after a very unfortunate injury.'

'He's come in a bit delayed from his games program. We got 45 mins from him [this] week. He's still adapting and adjusting. He'll be a slow burner, I think, but he's going along nicely at the minute, just settling in.' 'He's only just getting with us; he's training hard to get into fitness. He's doing well.'
