Ianis Hagi has won an international recall for Romania after two years out following his first goal since his return to action with Rangers.
The son of former Real Madrid and Barcelona star Gheorghe Hagi netted his first goal for Rangers last week at Hibs after over a year out from a serious knee injury.
He was at the centre of controversy in his homeland in March when Romania boss Edi Iordanescu snubbed him for their opening Euro 2024 games because of doubts over his fitness.
That prompted Romanian icon Hagi senior to blast his country's manager after he accused him of having an agenda against his son.
However, Hagi, 24, has returned to the fold for Romania's Euro 2024 double-header next month against Kosovo and Switzerland and was called up and is set to win his 25th cap.
The Hagi family enjoyed a double celebration last weekend after Ianis netted against Hibs and Gheorghe won the title with Farul Constanta - the club in Romania he owns and manages.
Hagi senior said: "It was a perfect Sunday for us. And the fact that Ianis scored before we started our match gave us all a positive boost before we went on to win the title.
"It was a great weekend family celebration."
Hagi's last cap came in 2021 against Liechtenstein. He's scored two goals in 24 games against North Macedonai and Germany.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
