Rangers £10 offer incoming?

Could Glen Kamara be on his way out of Rangers amid reports of a megabucks move to France?

The Scottish Sun claim that the Finnish international midfielder is the subject of serious interest from Ligue 1 side Nice with a £10million bid in the offing for a player who cost the Ibrox club just £50,000 in 2019.

Ange hints at Celtic arrival

Celtic could make a move for Danish holding midfielder Oliver Abildgaard in the final hours of the window.

After watching his side confidently despatch Ross County 4-1 in the Premier Sport Cup, boss Ange Postecoglou indulged in a spot of badinage when asked about reports of interest in the 26-year-old who is currently on special leave from Russian club Rubin Kazan.

“That’s a name, definitely a name,” he said of a player from a club Celtic have already raided for Sead Haksabanovic and Carl Starfelt. “There have been a lot of names. There are 24 hours to go, there are still some outgoings we are working on as well. We’ll see how things fall.”
