Russell Martin has addressed Nicolas Raskin's current situation at Rangers

The central midfielder was left out of the squad that drew 0-0 with Celtic at Ibrox just before the international break. 

He ultimately remained a Rangers player as the summer transfer window shut, and then went away with Belgium. 

Raskin impressed on international duty as he scored in his country's 6-0 World Cup qualifying victory over Kazakhstan last Sunday.

Speaking at a press conference ahead of Rangers' game against Heart of Midlothian tomorrow, boss Martin addressed the 24-year-old's current predicament.

He said: "Nico [Raskin] won't be in the squad tomorrow, he is back training with the group.

"I'm really happy with the squad we have with the window closed, and we now have to go out and put a positive performance in."

Raskin has played nine times under Martin so far, providing two assists in the process. 

He currently has just under three years remaining on his Rangers contract, having joined the club in January 2023 from Standard Liege.
