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.
It was "incredible" how Craig Gordon came back from a double leg break four years ago to make this summer's finals and end his career with Scotland at the World Cup, Rory Loy has stated on the BBC's Scottish Football Podcast. Ex-striker Loy suffered the same injury as the former Celtic, Hearts and Sunderland goalkeeper, who announced he is retiring from playing on Thursday. "I did the same thing, but I did it when I was 20, 23," he said of Gordon, who suffered the injury at the age of 39.
