"It's a similar situation that we always find in Scotland. If a player outside the Old Firm is doing well, you normally see the Rangers and Celtic linked with them."

Scotland have been forced to switch opponents from Peru to Venezuela for their final World Cup warm up match in the United States.

Just watching the Old Firm derby. That atmosphere is next level. I would've loved to have had a stint at Rangers and played in this at Ibrox. Electric.

Matthew Boyd made his first start of the spring and allowed a 2nd-inning run on a single by Sam Haggerty after Pete Crow-Armstrong lost a Tyler Wade fly ball in the high Arizona sky that dropped in for a double. Chicago evened the score on an RBI single by infield prospect Jefferson Rojas in the bottom of the frame.

It is an exciting time to be here and an exciting time to be involved at the club so I am delighted, I understand the position I am in, how much of a privilege it is to play here, the demands here and I am personally really happy and excited to know my future is here.

"Now we're looking forward to it. "We have to deliver again and again. If we do this, then we have a great opportunity to make the next small step on our journey. "The mindset is always to go for a win instead of a draw because then you are not fearful or too respectful. "I want to see a team who goes with courage on the pitch and is always ready to score goals."

Yeah, look, I'm sure there will be further interest in Nicolas Raskin come the summer transfer window. He will just have one year left on his contract at Rangers and if there's no new deal agreed, Rangers might be forced into cashing in on Raskin. They won't want to risk him running down his contract and potentially leaving on a free transfer.

Starting brightly, with some success - see wins over Panathinaikos and Viktoria Plzen. A quick collapse - see the 6-0 humiliation by Club Brugge in their Champions League play-off second leg. Then a disappointing second half - see an underwhelming Europa League campaign. Just one win in the league phase this season - coming last week against Ludogorets - and it all came far too late. By that point, they were effectively out already.

Rangers head coach Danny Rohl expects "the next three, four days to be a little crazy" as they try to assemble the best possible squad for the Scottish title run-in. Rohl's team visit Porto in their final Europa League match on Thursday evening and, with Rangers unable to progress, his pre-match news conference was dominated instead by questions about possible ins and outs.

Talks over Ryan Naderi have stalled between Rangers and Hansa Rostock, with the German third-tier club unwilling to accept a 2.6m offer for the 22-year-old striker while they do not have a replacement - and believe they can sell him for more in the summer. (Florian Plettenberg on X), external Rangers have the scope to increase their offer for Naderi, who is keen on a move to Ibrox, should Rostock be willing to sell

With Carson Soucy being held out tonight for roster management reasons, the trade has been finalized. The Rangers are trading Soucy to the Islanders for a 3rd round pick in this year's draft. This was the expected return for Soucy given what we know about trade deadline rentals, and at least somewhat recoups the trade acquisition cost from last year's ill-advised trade at the deadline to acquire the defenseman. Carson Soucy was not very good with the Rangers. After the deadline he was a healthy scratch for a few games as he was simply that bad. This year he improved, but it always looked like he was skating in mud.
