David Odonkor will get his chance at Ibrox Park?



Rangers have taken former Germany international winger David Odonkor on trial. He will spend “the next few days” training at Murray Park. Odonkor, right-sided player, had a bright future ahead, his prodigious legs allowed him to reach 100 meters in just 10.8 seconds, making it possibly the fastest player in the World. The impressive speed gave him a clear advantage in the field, but very seldom was able to use because, three years ago, a serious injury to the cartilage of the knee in his way to success.

The player underwent several surgeries and endless rehabilitation sessions. Still, the injury never quite left him. During the five seasons he was in the Betis, Odonkor continued relapses prevented him from playing regularly.

Theirs is a drama, a cluster of bad luck. The injury suffered was nothing exceptional, but if their postoperative complications. The experts spoke of a genetic lesion that showed his face because of this injury, and that sooner or later would have ended Odonkor hanging up his boots, not football but perhaps the sport at the highest level.

For Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga only played 75 games between 2002 and 2006. Odonkor, who played the 2006 World Cup in Germany was third, had a contract with Betis until June this year.

In the 2006/07 season took to the field 13 times, 20 during the following season and only seven in the 2009/10 season, in which Germany enjoyed a brief moment of success at the end of it, when Betis fighting for promotion by scoring two goals and an assist in three games. But this is only an exception because the rest of his appearances could not highlight because of their physical and technical limitations.
