New data from the CIES Football Observatory suggests Olwethu Makhanya is valued at £12m, a significant jump months after Rangers paid £3m to sign the South Africa defender from Philadelphia Union. Scotland head coach Sebastien Pocognoli praised Scott Mc Tominay as "a top player who can play in many positions" amid Napoli recovery. Celtic midfielder Benjamin Nygren admits the team is not fully over their Champions League play-off defeat by LASK.

Rangers previously paid defender Connor Goldson to leave and join Aris Limassol, with Goldson later criticising the club's handling of captain James Tavernier's departure. Meanwhile, Celtic manager Martin O'Neill resigned from two tax schemes designed to save members money by investing in films weeks before leading his club to a domestic double last season.
