Rangers ace being 'humiliated' by Ibrox club after contract decision as 'not allowed to do his job' claim made
The Rangers star has come back into the senior fold but has been handed transfer advice.
Adrian Mutu has told Ianis Hagi that he is being embarrassed at Rangers.
The playmaker has had a contract dispute resolved but overall this campaign, the Romanian international has been limited to 50 minutes of action from two Premiership appearances and was an unused substitute on two more outings.
He’s also had a red card. Last season, Hagi was on loan in La Liga with Alaves, but former Fiorentina, Chelsea and Juventus star Mutu has words of advice for his fellow Romanian. He has urged Hagi to leave Rangers.
As quoted by Sport Witness, the ex-forward said: “I don’t know, that’s Ianis’ problem. I haven’t spoken to him. I haven’t spoken to Gică either. It really is an unpleasant situation. He should be asked why he insists on staying. I don’t think it suits anyone not to play.
“Regardless of how much money you earn, I’ve seen players, and I fall into that category, if I don’t at least have the chance, because he often doesn’t get the chance to train with the big team, of course I would like to change places.
“When you fall out of favour with the club, because these things happen, when the club pays you, but doesn’t let you do your job. Why? Because they bet on your desire to play, and that’s what all the players want, and then you make a decision to leave, of course, which is financially favourable to the club.
“Ianis Hagi is paid, but he is not allowed to do his job, that means he is humiliated by the club by calling him, giving him a chance, he was unlucky with that red card, but he played decently, and then you send him back to the second team.
“Of course he will make a decision. I’m sure he will make a decision in the winter because it’s a complicated situation. If I could give him one piece of advice, it would be that he has to play. Let him go, sort out his problems there, play somewhere, because he has been on loan before. The current situation is hurting him.”
