Diomande expected to pass medical due to near-perfect injury record
Diomande’s near-perfect season in terms of his fitness means that he should not have any issues with his medical, according to Dr Brar.
Everton are understood to be among the favourites to sign the Rangers midfielder, who could leave Ibrox this summer.

Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, Dr Brar, a specialist in Physical Therapy and a Sports Scientist, said about Diomande: “He missed just one game last season and that was down to a knock he had suffered in mid-week.
“Everything suggests that he would pass his medical without any issues.
“*It’s always a positive when an outfielder starts most games and does not have absences due to injuries.*“

Everton will thrive by signing Diomande this summer
Diomande would be a smart signing for Everton due to his versatility, athleticism and proven impact.
The 23-year-old Rangers midfielder, who joined for £4.5million from Nordsjaelland, offers box-to-box dynamism, capable of playing as a No. 6, 8, 10 and even as a winger.
He bagged six goals and nine assists in 54 appearances last season, including strong Europa League performances, highlighting his attacking and defensive contributions.
With Abdoulaye Doucoure’s departure, Diomande’s work rate, creativity and physicality align with David Moyes’ needs.
His adaptability suits Everton’s squad rebuild, providing a long-term midfield solution at a potentially high-value transfer fee.
