Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay, 29, has no desire to leave the Serie A club despite reported interest from Manchester United, according to sporting director Giovanni Manna. The Italian side has faced no formal approaches for the Scotland international. Simultaneously, Rangers remain open to offering captain James Tavernier, 34, a contract extension despite a challenging season at Ibrox.

Rangers' stance contrasts with their denial of a January move for Tromso midfielder Jens Hjerto-Dahl, who instead rejected a Turkish league move to Besiktas because he deemed Norway's top flight a better step. Meanwhile, 30-year-old defender Omar Sowunmi has impressed for Bromley in League Two, attracting interest from Aberdeen, Oxford United, Bolton Wanderers, Barnsley and Plymouth Argyle. Finally, former Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou teased a potential change of heart regarding returning to former clubs, having previously shut down links to Celtic.
