Rangers make Oliver Antman transfer breakthrough with deal timeline emerging
Talks over a move for the Finnish international have been progressing and now a deal could be in sight for Russell Martin Oliver Antman is set to sign for Rangers after the Ibrox club agreed a fee with Go Ahead Eagles. Record Sport understands that an agreement has been reached with the Eredivise outfit for the Finnish wide man, with sources in the Netherlands suggesting that the 23-year-old could become Russell Martin 's latest signing within the next 24 to 48 hours. Talks have taken place over a switch to Ibrox and a breakthrough has been made with the Deventer-based outfit. A fee of around £5million has been reported, and now it's understood that progress has been made with both club and player, easing the way for a move to Govan to happen. Antman won't be eligible for Wednesday night's Champions League second leg showdown with Panathinaikos in Athens even if he signs in time. But he could well be in the squad Martin takes to Fir Park on Saturday as Gers begin their Scottish Premiership campaign with an evening kick-off away to Motherwell. Antman bagged 7 goals and an impressive 17 assists to help fire Go Ahead to Dutch Cup glory last term. Sheffield United had been strongly linked with Antman, along with Belgian outfit and recent Ibrox visitors Club Brugge. But it now looks as if Gers have won the race. Go Ahead Eagles director Jan Willem van Dop insisted Antman, along with Celtic-linked teammate Jakob Breum, wouldn't leave on the cheap. He told Oost: "We think Breum and Antman should be allowed to leave for more than six million," which would seem to be the threshold Rangers have met to get a deal over the line. Former PSV, Barcelona and Dutch international star Ibrahim Affelay predicted that Antman would bank Go Ahead good money. he said: "That Antman is really... I think the treasurer is rubbing his hands with glee. He's going to make a fantastic transfer at the end of the season."

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LIONESSES star Beth Mead scored a penalty then was controversially forced to retake and MISSED in a dramatic Euros final shootout. After 120 minutes of action, it was England 1-1 Spain and left to spot-kicks to decide the final. 5 Beth Mead was forced to retake the penalty after already scoring Credit: BBC 5 Mead's standing leg gave way and it led to a double touch spot-kick Credit: Getty 5 The Arsenal star had to return to the penalty spot and go again Credit: Getty 5 Her second attempt was saved by the goalkeeper Credit: Getty Mead bravely stepped up first for the Lionesses and scored her penalty despite slipping over. But as her standing foot gave way she fired the ball with her right on to her left boot. The double touch diverted the ball beyond the Spanish goalkeeper and it rolled into the back of the net. Due to recently changed new rules, a retake was ordered by referee Stephanie Frappart.

Though the Lionesses did not let it impact them as they went on to win the shootout 3-1. The rule on accidental double touches on penalties was tweaked by lawmakers in June. It came after Atletico Madrid star Julian Alvarez did similar to Mead in the Champions League last-16 earlier this season.

The outrage over the decision caused IFAB to alter Law 14, which is based on a player intentionally kicking the ball twice during a penalty. Chloe Kelly completes Lionesses' greatest comeback yet to retain Euros title It now states: "The penalty taker inadvertently hits the ball with both feet simultaneously or the ball touches his supporting foot or leg just after taking the kick: If the ball enters the goal, it will be repeated. "If the ball does not enter the goal, an indirect free kick will be awarded (unless the referee grants an advantage when the action clearly benefits the defending team) or, in the case of penalty shoot-outs, the shot will be recorded as missed." Meanwhile, if a player voluntarily kicks with both feet, the alternative rule states: "An indirect free kick will be awarded (unless the referee grants an advantage when the action clearly benefits the defending team) or, in the case of penalty shoot-outs, the shot will be recorded as missed."

But they still had a few lives left to spare after previously escaping the jaws of defeat twice against Sweden and Italy in the quarter-finals and semi-finals. And they used up the rest in a nervy but courageous display against the reigning world champions, who had narrowly beaten England to that title at the World Cup two years ago. Super sub Kelly, who had replaced the injured Lauren James before the break, made the most of her connection with Arsenal team-mate Russo to find her in the box. The ace who scored the Champions League final winner then added another final goal to her CV with a header into the net to draw the Lionesses level just before the hour. And England were held to a stalemate before going into another round of extra time - making the Lionesses the first team to go into extra time in three different matches of a major women's international tournament. Spain were in the ascendancy for much of the final 30 minutes, but were held at bay despite flashing the ball across the face of Hannah Hampton's goal on more than one occasion.
