If Thompson Ishaka joins Nottingham Forest this month, he will be a long way from making his senior debut for Rangers, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.

According to the injury expert, Forest will assess his level of fitness for the under-18 team and determine whether he is capable of playing at a higher level.

Brar, a physical therapist and sports scientist, spoke exclusively with Ibrox News about his circumstances. “He’s not yet played at the senior level for Rangers, so moving to the Premier League is in itself a step up,” Brar said.Forest will assess his level of fitness and devise a systematic plan to close the gap, involving on-pitch training, fitness training, and a quick route to playing football with the first team.

“Forest will be aware that there’s still a long way to go before he can be considered first-team ready.”
