Nico Raskin has been welcomed back into the fold at Rangers after holding crunch talks with Russell Martin – according to a report.

The Belgium international was remarkably bombed out of the squad to face Celtic before the international break, with the sides playing out a 0-0 draw at Ibrox.

It came after Martin admitted last month that he had also omitted Raskin from the first leg Champions League qualifying victory over Viktoria Plzen because the player had been turned by transfer speculation around his future.

Raskin has now broken his silence on the situation, vowing to get himself back in Martin’s good books, reports Daily Record Sport.

The 24-year-old has been away with Belgium on international duty last month and scored in their 6-0 victory over Kazakhstan in a World Cup 2026 qualifier on Sunday.

And Sun Sport now claim that the playmaker has now returned to training ahead of Gers home clash with Hearts in the Premiership on Saturday.

They, however, add that there is no guarantee that Raskin will be included from the start against the Jambos and instead might have to settle for a place on the bench.

Boss Martin faces a crucial few weeks to arrest his poor start to life in the dugout.

The former Scotland defender has failed to win in each of his four Premiership matches, which have all ended in draws.

They currently trail leaders Celtic by six points and after the visit of the Jambos then host Hibs in the quarter final of the Premier Sports Cup on September 20.

The Light Blues then kick-off their Europa League campaign when Belgian outfit Genk make the trip to Ibrox on September 25.
