Defender granted necessary paperwork to take on St Johnstone
Rangers manager Ally McCoist has confirmed Dorin Goian has been given the green light to face St Johnstone on Saturday.
The Romania international joined Gers from Palermo earlier this week but the transfer was subject to a work permit and international clearance.
He has now been granted the necessary paperwork and is in contention to make his debut in the SPL this weekend.
McCoist is also hoping the defender will be able to feature in next Wednesday's UEFA Champions League qualifier second leg against Malmo, despite reports to the contrary that suggested Rangers had missed a European deadline.
"He can play tomorrow, the bit of paperwork has come through," said McCoist.
"We are still hopeful that he can play next Wednesday too and that's in the hands of the SFA.
"Our reading of the situation is that Uefa have batted it back to the SFA so it's in their hands."
However, skipper David Weir misses the visit to Saints with a hamstring problem and has been rated doubtful for the trip to Sweden.
