Ianis Hagi has opened up on the tough mental and physical battle he's faced while out injured as he edges closer and closer to a return.
The Rangers star has been on the sidelines for close to a year after suffering a knee injury in a Scottish Cup clash with Stirling Albion in January. It's been an extremely difficult period for the Romanian as he battles the ups and downs of the recovery process. He's hailed the Light Blues' part and the support they've shown him through this period as he begins working with his teammates once again.
It is unknown exactly when Hagi will make his long-awaited return but it is sure to come as a major boost to the Rangers faithful and boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst with the Ibrox men going through a tough period of late. They've fallen nine points behind Celtic at the top of the Premiership while they suffered the unwanted tag as the 'worst ever' side in the Champions League group stages after six defeats and a -20 goal difference.
