Rangers star set for international debut as red tape issue cleared

Rangers striker Ryan Naderi is in line to earn his first cap for Czechia after overcoming a red tape issue.

The Ibrox forward is set to be called up for his national team after obtaining a Czech passport.

Naderi was eligible for Germany and Bulgaria but opted to declare for Czechia after talks with national team boss Miroslav Koubek.

Koubek wanted to include Naderi in his squad during the international break but was unable to do so due to red tape blocking his inclusion.

However, as reported by The Rangers Review, Naderi has overcome the issue and is now free to represent Czechia.

The striker won't be involved against England tonight but is set to be involved against Spain and England at Wembley in the remaining matches in the international break.

The potential for a first cap for Naderi comes after a special period for the striker who netted the winner in the 1-0 triumph over Celtic at Parkhead earlier this month.
