Nicolas Raskin has obtained his work permit and could be available for selection when Rangers meet Ross County this weekend.
The Belgian midfielder was announced on deadline day after arriving from Standard Liege, ending a lengthy pursuit of the highly-rated 21-year-old. But he was only able to watch on during Wednesday's 3-0 Premiership win against Hearts due to his paperwork not being in yet. Work permits are required for players coming into UK football from overseas there's many factors that get considered when awarding them but he now has the green light.
He revealed: "I feel ready, I got all my paperwork today so I am ready. I hope I am in the squad tomorrow as I am very excited to hopefully play tomorrow if selected by the coach. I loved the way the manager explains how he wants to play football, passing, and creating. I was searching for a style of play close to what I know. I really want to continue with a big club with a great atmosphere and play in European competition in future. I want to win trophies, I want to play in the Champions League, not just to play, I want to compete at this level."
