Nico Raskin 'holds talks' with Rangers boss Russell Martin

Nicolas Raskin will return to Rangers first team training this week, according to a report.

The Belgian international is back in Glasgow after being away on international duty with his country. 

He scored his first national team goal in their 6-0 thumping of Kazakhstan.

Prior to the international break, Russell Martin left Raskin out of the matchday squad for the drab 0-0 encounter with Celtic.

That came after a fallout which led to the midfielder, 24, training alone. 

Now, the Scottish Sun say the midfielder has held talks with Martin about the situation.

As a result, he will return to first team training at Auchenhowie.

However, they claim Raskin is aware he will have to earn his spot in the team.

Rangers take on Hearts in their next Scottish Premiership game. They match will be played at Ibrox at 3pm.

Raskin is keen to put the summer turmoil behind him, and focus on his club football now.

“I’m going to do my best to turn it around," he told media in Belgium. "I know I can be important for my club. I have a good relationship with the fans.

“My situation at the club is complicated. I’ll try to sort it out but it’s not just up to me.

“I absolutely love Rangers. I try to give my all. Do I want a transfer in the coming weeks? No, that is not the intention.

“I want to regain my place in the team. It’s not an easy situation.”
