Necessity being the mother of invention means Nicolas Raskin’s exile from the Rangers first team is unlikely to be a prolonged one.
The Ibrox midfield needs his skillset too much for the Belgium player to be left out of a struggling side led by an under-pressure manager for much longer.
Raskin is poised to return to training after being left out of the squad for the draw against Celtic before the international break.
He scored his first goal for Belgium this week and has said he is eager to regain his place in the side after a “complicated” summer, at the end of which he fell out with boss Russell Martin.Martin needs results, though, and with in-form Hearts next on the horizon, Raskin will surely be in his thinking.
Victory for Hearts on Saturday would move them a daunting nine points ahead of Rangers in the Scottish Premiership and pile further heat on the new manager.
