Ianis Hagi is on his way to Alaves without a penny coming in to boost Micky Beale’s transfer warchest.
Reported interest from Barcelona, Spurs and Manchester City has regularly been created by the Romanian media with the Scottish press happy to spin the message that there is a highly rated star playing at Ibrox.
After suffering a knee injury that ruled him out foa year Hagi was given a contract extension last year by Beale and made his first team comeback last January against St Johnstone.
Todd Cantwell, Nico Raskin, Kieran Dowell, Jose Cifuentes and Sam Lammers have been brought in to the Ibrox midfield with Hagi and Glen Kamara getting pushed out the door.
Despite haggling for transfer fees no one is prepared to pay money for someone whose fitness is doubted by his manager with The Athletic reporting:
Rangers midfielder Ianis Hagi is close to joining La Liga side Alaves on a season-long loan. There is no loan fee or option to buy involved in the deal. A medical has been scheduled.
Hagi has only made two appearances from the bench this season and was omitted from the squad that beat Ross County 2-0 on Saturday.
The Romanian international was also left out of Rangers’ Champions League squad to face PSV Eindhoven.
After joining on an initial loan deal in January Hagi has gone on to make 98 appearances for Rangers, but he ruptured both his anterior crucial ligament and medial cruciate ligament in January 2022.
He made his return to the field in January this year but has only started four times and expressed his frustration at his limited minutes under manager Michael Beale after featuring in a 3-0 League Cup win over Greenock Morton this month.
It seems that there are no Tillman clauses in the loan deal.
Despite months of trailing there is absolutely no sign that Leeds United are about to spend £5.5m on Kamara.
98 appearances?! That must include “appearances’ as an unused substitute as well as when he gets on for his 5 minute cameos! I am barely aware of him playing more than a handful of games.
Getting somebody to take this overrated Nepo-baby aff their wage bill for a season is arguably the best bit of business Pete Beale has done this summer!
I don’t think we should be judging any team or any of their players at this particular moment and time just look at the state we find ourselves in.
Get our own house in order before dishing out CRITICISM of others.
The league has gone and we are only 3 games into the season and already out a cup competition,as for the game next week get Sudocrem out because we are coming out of the BIGOT dome with one massive SORE ARSE,at least a 4 goal DRUBBING.
Oh and don’t shoot the messenger I’m only speaking the truth.
Bang!
What a complete fool Scud is under no circumstances will celtic get beat 4nil personally I believe it will be scoring draw
Peas&barley I wish I could share your enthusiasm,we have a better chance of seeing Lord Lucan or rocking horse doing a shit than us getting anything from that game next week.
Personally I think that there is no way of knowing!
