Cliftonville boss Jim Magilton is without several players for his side’s clash with Carrick Rangers
Having saluted his fringe players for making an impact in Cliftonville’s midweek victory over Crusaders, Jim Magilton will need to dig deep within his squad to cover a raft of absences for Saturday’s Premiership assignment at Carrick Rangers.
With summer recruit Rhyss Campbell expected to miss the entire 2025/26 season with an anterior cruciate ligament injury and defender Luke Conlan nursing a groin complaint, Magilton will also be without three of his loan signings for the trip to Taylors Avenue, while another promising option is ruled out through international duty.
