Scotland have been forced to change opponents for their final World Cup warm-up match, switching from Peru to Venezuela for the United States fixture. The last-minute alteration comes as Rangers assess the impact of their high-profile loan signing. The Scottish national team had already prepared for their initial matchup before the sudden change.

Rangers' £8 million pursuit of Denmark international Andreas Skov Olsen hangs in the balance after the 40-times capped winger failed to impress during his loan spell at Ibrox from Wolfsburg. Meanwhile, Dundee United could see a potential boost with 35-year-old striker Johnny Russell considering a return to Tannadice, according to former teammate Lee Wilkie. The struggling side hopes Russell's experience could provide the lift they need.

In managerial news, Aberdeen's pursuit of Eirik Horneland continues, with former striker Arild Stavrum praising the Norwegian's potential to bring 'modern' football to Pittodrie. Elsewhere, Rangers defender Clinton Nsiala issued a public apology after being sent off for violent conduct while on loan at Westerlo. The 16-year-old Chris Condy is also set to leave Rangers for Brighton, with a transfer fee agreed for the promising striker.
