Ianis Hagi is Rangers doubt after testing positive for Covid on Romania duty

Romania have confirmed that Ianis Hagi has tested positive for Covid while on international duty.

The Rangers man played and provided an assist in their 2-0 win over Lichtenstein on Sunday.

But the Romanian FA have confirmed that the Ibrox star has returned a positive test result after teammate Dorian Rotariu caught the virus.

He’ll now miss their midweek clash against Macedonia.

A statement from the governing body read: "Today (Tuesday) around noon, Ianis Hagi complained of slight headaches in the Skopje national team's camp.

"He performed a quick test under the coordination of the medical staff of the national team and the result is positive.

"The player immediately went into isolation. Until today, on the occasion of this action of the national team, Ianis had performed 5 Covid tests, all with a negative result."

It means Hagi is likely to miss the Gers’ Premiership clash with St Johnstone on Saturday lunchtime.
