Ianis Hagi is set to become Steven Gerrard’s first January signing as the son of Romania great Gheorghe prepares to agree a six-month loan deal.

Gerrard has been focusing on trimming his squad this month but is now ready to make a move for the highly-rated Genk midfielder.

Hagi – whose father starred for both Real Madrid and Barcelona as well as Romania at two World Cups – has himself won 10 caps for his country.

He signed for Belgian outfit Genk for £4million last summer but could now secure a permanent switch to Glasgow if he impresses Gerrard during the title race run-in.

The Light Blues boss confirmed after Wednesday’s win over Ross County he was confident of recruiting a new player before the transfer window closes on Friday.
