Celtic's Matt O'Riley

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou is not worried about Leicester City being linked with midfielder Matt O’Riley, saying it only proves the success of his own club’s signing policy. (Daily Record)external-link

Besiktas will have to significantly drop their £6m asking fee for Ridvan Yilmaz if Rangers are to make a bid for the 21-year-old Turkey left-back. (Daily Mail, print edition)

If Rangers sign Ridvan Yilmaz, they will have stolen a march over last season’s Europa League final opponents, Eintracht Frankfurt, whose bid for the Turkey left-back stalled because Besiktas were unhappy at the German club’s payment plan for the 21-year-old who has also been on Tottenham Hotspur’s radar.

Rocky Bushiri says he always planned to stay with Hibernian, despite the Scottish Premiership club having announced he had left Easter Road before he surprisingly signed a three-year deal a week later, the 22-year-old defender explaining that he had triggered the number of games required to make his loan from Norwich City permanent.
