Nedim Bajrami is expected to leave Rangers in the coming days, with a return to Italian football emerging as the most likely destination for the 27-year-old Albania winger. Leicester City and Swansea City are leading the race to sign John Souttar, with the 29-year-old Scotland centre-half certain to end his four years with Rangers. Rangers and Cardiff City face serious competition for Tromso midfielder Jens Hjerto-Dahl, with Hull City now very interested in the 20-year-old.
Everton, whose Scotland right-back, Nathan Patterson, is drawing strong interest from clubs in Germany, Italy and Spain, are preparing to firm up their interest in Celtic 27-year-old Alistair Johnston. Mika Baur has informed Paderborn of his desire to join Celtic this summer after the 22-year-old midfielder agreed personal terms with the Scottish champions. Mika Baur missed Paderborn's friendly with Southampon on Wednesday, but the German club's claim that the Celtic target was ill is not accurate.
Hibernian forward Tegan Bowie has joined Serie A side Parma Calcio on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee after the Italian club triggered a release clause in her contract. Bowie was part of the Hibs academy in her youth before joining Celtic but the winger returned to Edinburgh in 2023 where she has cemented herself as a key member of the squad. The 22-year-old made 101 appearances and scored nine goals for Hibs.
Celtic manager Martin O'Neill expects the full contingent of his World Cup players to be in training next week before the new Scottish Premiership season kicks-off. Scotland left-back Kieran Tierney and Tunisia winger Sebastian Tounekti both started in Saturday's 2-2 friendly draw with AC Milan.
Rangers striker Danilo has arrived in Brazil and is set to undergo a medical on Friday to complete the 27-year-old's loan move to Botafogo. Celtic midfielder Reo Hatate, Rangers centre-half John Souttar and the Scotland international's brother, Australia and Leicester City defender Harry, are all on West Ham United's summer radar. AC Milan have almost reached an agreement with Troyes to sign 20-year-old central defender Sankhoun Diawara, for whom Rangers and Basel have expressed an interest.
Tottenham have confirmed that full-back Andy Robertson will wear number three during his time at the club. This is common for left-backs but it is not the Scotland international's go-to number; at his past three clubs (Liverpool, Hull City and Dundee United), Robertson opted to wear number 26.
Dundee United 25-year-old Will Ferry is on a list of potential left-back options Celtic manager Martin O'Neill is considering. Celtic are in talks with AEK Athens' former Hearts left-back, James Penrice, with the 27-year-old open to a return to Scotland even though he would be back-up to Kieran Tierney. James Penrice's representatives say Rangers are not interested in the AEK Athens right-back but there is a small window of opportunity for Celtic to sign the Scot.
Bringing Czech winger Vaclav Cerny back to Rangers is likely more realistic than signing Scotland midfielder Lewis Ferguson, former Ibrox goalkeeper Cammy Bell suggests. Both have been mentioned in the summer transfer speculation, with Cerny having joined Besiktas since his loan to Rangers, while Ferguson is battling to impress new Bologna head coach Domenico Tedesco amid interest from around Europe. "I think all Rangers fans would absolutely love him to have him [Ferguson] at the club," Bell told the BBC Scottish Football Podcast.
