Gheorghe Hagi reckons his son Ianis was Rangers' "best player" before he picked up an injury as he took aim at Romania boss Edi Iordanescu for snubbing the playmaker.
Hagi was ignored by his country for their Euro 2024 double header with Andorra and Belraus as he works on his fitness at Auchenhowie after returning from injury following 13 months out after a serious knee injury. Michael Beale has eased the 24-year-old back into his first-team plans with the midfielder making just one start after returning to the Light Blues' squad - in the Scottish Cup win over Partick Thistle where he was replaced at half-time.
He has made four Scottish Premiership appearances off the bench, and Hagi's famous dad, who played for both Real Madrid and Barcelona, has been left raging that he was not recalled to the international set-up. After being accused of ignoring Hagi Jr, Iordanescu insisted the the Rangers star was still in his plans - but was being allowed to stay at Auchenhowie and work under Beale.
