Former Celtic defender Kieran Tierney is wanted by Inter Milan and Juventus. According to Italian news outlet Tutto Mercato, the Serie A pair could both try and lure him away from the UK before the deadline. He has fallen out of favour at Arsenal and has seen his game time dry up.

Winger in contract admission

Hoops winger Liel Abada is focused on his football amid transfer speculation linking him with a move to the Premier League. He is under contract until the summer of 2026 and has told Football Scotland: “For now, I am not focused on that. I am focused on the games. I don’t want to speak about it. What will happen will happen.”

Blow in transfer pursuit

Rangers’ hopes of signing attacker Morgan Whittaker from Championship side Swansea City have been dealt a blow. The 22-year-old caught the eye on loan at Plymouth Argyle during the first-half of this season. Boss Michael Beale has simply said, as per The Scotsman: “He will be staying at Swansea I believe.”

Midfielder on radar

Despite seemingly missing out on Whittaker, Beale has insisted that he wants another midfielder. The Gers could do with some more depth in the middle of the park. He has told The Scotsman: “We are looking for a midfielder that strengthens the team and creates more competition. I want players here for the long term and to make us stronger right to now. Once the window shuts the coaching takes place and I am looking forward to that.”
