'Strange' - Pundit moots Rangers to hold talks with agent to agree terms for ace to play ASAP

Rangers not holding talks with Ianis Hagi’s agent in order to alter the terms of his contract so he can play is “strange”, according to Derek Ferguson.

The attacker has a clause in his contract that would trigger a wage increase of £6,000 if he players more games [Daily Record, 13 August], so he is turning out for the B Team while stuck on 99 senior games.

Philippe Clement has indicated he has no plans for the Romanian and he can leave, but with no exit yet forthcoming and Hagi wanting to stay [Football Scotland, 19 August] Ferguson wants those involved to sit down and agree a way for Hagi to contribute.

He exclusively told Ibrox News: “I just don’t understand why they can’t get round the table with Hagi’s advisers or his agent, whoever it is that deals with it, with the manager, and sort something out. 

“Whether it’s a delay in the payments, or whether they can cut back on it a little bit. It just seems strange to me.

Philippe Clement has told Ianis Hagi he can leave Rangers

Hagi has been told he can leave by Philippe Clement [Sky Sports, 12 August] despite being keen to continue with the club, but the Belgian has struggled to get new signings through the door.

Why the club handed the former Alaves loanee a new contract in December 2022 with such a clause in it makes little sense if they are now trying so hard to avoid it.

Unless a transfer away is on the cards imminently there seems to be no benefit to club or player for him to continue shining in the B Team only.

Rapid Bucharest were thought to be looking to sign him [Fanatik, 20 August] but the deadline is now just days away and he has not gone, so internal talks may be the only way out of the situation.

In other Rangers news, a two-position Light Blues ace who has never been seen in action before is now closing in on his debut for the club.
