The 26-year-old has recorded four assists in the Scottish Premiership this season, making just four starts, and Ilia Dumitrescu praised his quality and the impact his performance against Celtic had on his father, saying: “Ianis Hagi had a sensational match.
“He hit a very good shot that managed to surprise such an excellent goalkeeper as Kasper Schmeichel. But he was superb throughout the game. I saw the look of Gheorghe after the goal and he remained indifferent. That’s because he was expecting Ianis, he never gets excited !”
Hopefully Hagi doesn’t like the idea of leaving Rangers in January, believing he wants to stay at least until the end of the season, but Genoa’s interest seems like a concern.
