Gheorghe Hagi slams Romania boss after Rangers comeback by Ianis leads to false promises accusation

Gheorghe Hagi has blasted Romania boss Edi Iordanescu in scathing fashion after son Ianis was snubbed for international recognition

The playmaker is back in the Rangers after spending 13 months out with a serious knee injury, with manager Michael Beale slowly easing him back into the Ibrox fold with a string of substitute appearances.. He hasn't been picked for matches with Andorra and Belarus this month, much to the anger of his dad, a former Barcelona and Real Madrid legend who won 124 caps for the nation before going on to manage them.

He said: "I don't want the Romanian public to be misinformed here. The fact is the national manager called Ianis when he was injured to tell him he is a very important player for the team. Now Ianis is fit, he apparently cannot get into the team. He was not even named on the preliminary list. It's clear to me Ianis is obviously not that important to the team. If he was, he would certainly have been called up.
