Ian Durrant, a Rangers legend, understands the challenges Ianis Hagi is facing as he works to revive his career at Ibrox. Durrant, who overcame a devastating knee injury in 1988 that sidelined him for almost three years, sees parallels between his own journey and Hagi’s struggle to return to form after a similar injury. Despite never fully regaining the player he was before his injury, Durrant went on to have a successful career at Rangers, winning 13 major medals and becoming a nine-in-a-row hero.

Durrant has sympathy for Hagi, who has faced setbacks including a contract dispute, suspension, and a slow reintroduction to the team. However, after watching Hagi perform well for Romania, he remains hopeful. “I think he will want more game time,” Durrant said. “If we get Hagi back fit and well, it’ll bode well for Rangers.” Durrant also emphasized the importance of passion and desire in overcoming adversity, urging Hagi and the current team to reconnect with the fans and reignite their form on the pitch.
