A Romanian football insider has claimed Rangers have slapped a £2.95 million price tag on Ianis Hagi, but no clubs can watch him in Scotland.
The Romanian star remains frozen out under Philippe Clement, but vowed this week after international duty he would continue to fight for his place.
Giovanni Becali claims the reason clubs haven't tried to sign Hagi is because Rangers want 3.5 million Euros [£2.95 million] for his client and they don't get an opportunity to scout the player.
He said: "Ianis' problem is that Rangers have set a clause for him, 3.5 million Euros.
"If a club comes in for him and pays it, he can leave Rangers.
"But the problem is Rangers aren't giving him the opportunity so no one can watch him.
"He's not even getting to sit on the bench, never mind playing."
Meanwhile, former Romania World Cup star, Iosif Rotariu, has questioned Ibrox boss Clement's decision not to use Hagi.
The ex-Steaua Bucharest and Galatasaray midfielder said: "I watched Ianis during the international games there. I have never watched a player in my life who could dribble equally as well with his right or left foot.
"I know what's happening with him at Rangers. He should be used by the Rangers manager, no question.
"He's an exceptional player."
