Here are the top Scottish transfer stories, rumours and gossip on Friday morning, including the latest news from Rangers, Celtic, Hibs and beyond this morning. The latest stories from around the Scottish Premiership, as Celtic face competition for an 18-goal midfielder this summer. | Getty Images Livingston new boy 'turned down' lucrative offers Livingston striker Jeremy Bokila turned down more 'lucrative' offers to stay in the Eredivisie this summer because of his desire to experience the 'passion' of Scottish football, head coach David Martindale has revealed. The 36-year-old forward had his move to Almondvale Stadium rubber stamped on Monday, and is now in line to make his debut in Saturday's opening league game at Kilmarnock after moving from top-flight club Willem II. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad "Jeremy had offers to stay in the top tier of Holland,' said Martindale. 'But he wanted a new challenge. He's played the top tier over there, he's played top tier a few countries. He was aware of Scottish football and the passion surrounding Scottish football. So it definitely wasn't a financial decision for Jeremy because he would have had better offers, but it was just that new experience for him coming to the latter stages of his career. He wants to go and try something different and the passion and desire of Scottish football attracted him to Scotland. I just think the passion within Scottish football is phenomenal. We've got lower crowds but the atmosphere is still really, really vibrant.' Livingston Manager David Martindale has signed veteran striker Jeremy Bokila. | SNS Group Celtic and Rangers 'enter' race for defender Celtic and Rangers have 'entered' the race to sign highly-rated France under-21 international Kassoum Ouattara, according to reports in the player's homeland. The 20-year-old defender made 12 appearances in Ligue 1 for the AS Monaco last term, and has serious interest from across Europe this summer, with Les Monégasques thought to be open to allowing the player to depart on a permanent transfer, if a suitable offer is made for his services. Italian outfit Torino have been monitoring Ouattara's situation for a number of weeks, with Augsburg, PSV Eindhoven, Toulouse, and Metz all said to have contacted the player's agent to express their interest. The defender is desperate to play more regular first team football this season, and while it is unknown how serious the interest is from both Glasgow clubs, they are credited with an interest in the player and have officially made their interest in the player known, as per a report from FootMercato. AS Monaco defender Kassoum Ouattara has interest from both Celtic and Rangers, according to reports. | AFP via Getty Images Hibs exit 'agreed' Hibs full-back Lewis Miller is set to depart Easter Road, after the club agreed a deal with Blackburn Rovers for the Australian international on Thursday. According to a report from the Lancashire Telegraph, the versatile defender will move to Ewood Park as a replacement for Callum Brittain, who is expected to join EFL Championship rivals Middlesbrough, with Miller the 'first-choice target' to replace the outgoing full-back. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The full-back, who was not involved in last night's Europa League qualifying defeat against FC Midtjylland, has been sidelined in pre-season after picking up an injury in the friendly clash against Rot-Weiss Essen, which is believed to have delayed the transfer. The 24-year-old is into his final 12 months in Leith, and Rovers are believed to have struck a deal worth just under £1million for the player, who they hope to have in the door before their season opener against West Bromwich Albion next weekend. Lewis Miller is on the verge of a departure from Hibs this summer. | SNS Group Coady 'close' to £2m deal Rangers look set to miss out on long-term defensive target Conor Coady, with newly promoted big spending Wrexham now 'close' to completing a deal for the Leicester City centre-back. Rangers head coach Russell Martin has been keen to strike a deal for the 32-year-old former England international throughout the summer transfer window, with reports claiming Coady would be open to the move to Ibrox if a deal could be agreed. However, according to Sky Sports journalist Anthony Joseph, talks have now 'accelerated' between the ex-Wolverhampton Wanderers captain and Wrexham in the last few days, after the Welsh side launched a £2million bid earlier this week. It is said that both parties have 'a willingness to come an agreement soon.' Meanwhile, former Rangers midfielder John Lundstram has returned to UK shores this week after agreeing a season-long loan move to EFL Championship side Hull City. Famously remembered for scoring the winning goal in the 3-1 Europa League semi-final second leg victory over RB Leipzig, he played 100 games for the Teddy Bears before moving to Trabzonspor last summer with fellow ex-Rangers star Borna Barisic, following the expiry of their contracts at Ibrox.

The Burnley captain announced his departure from Turf Moor earlier this week, with the 29-year-old midfielder saying he had made the 'difficult' decision to leave the club, despite their promotion back to the English Premier League. The announcement of his departure was said to have alerted the Hoops to his availability, with head coach Rodgers mulling a deal that see him move across the border. However, the Scottish champions could be beaten to the punch by the Foxes, after FourFourTwo claimed the recently relegated EFL Championship side have opened talks over a deal for Brownhill. Keen to return to the top flight as soon as possible, Leicester are said to have offered Brownhill a lengthy contract in order to tempt him to move to the King Power Stadium.

Celtic target Victor Eriksson breaks silence on Hoops transfer link after scout sees him score epic last minute winner
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CELTIC target Victor Eriksson has broken silence on rumours linking him with a cut price move to Glasgow. Top Hoops scout Paul Tisdale is believed to have watched the star in Belgium last night when the giant defender popped up with an 119th minute winner to march on in Conference League qualifying. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 3 Victor Eriksson of Hammarby celebrates his goal 3 Brendan Rodgers is making major changes to his backline Credit: Getty He was also in attendance for the first leg in Sweden last week, as the Hoops do due diligence on a star whose under contract until 2028. It was a huge moment for the player - but Hoops fans may have to cool it a little when it comes to hoping to see the 24-year-old international joining them this summer. That's because Hammarby coach Kim Hellberg insisted that his star man is NOT for sale, while Eriksson himself appeared to pour cold water on the prospect of moving anywhere this summer. Asked about the possibility of moving abroad and Celtic's interest, Eriksson told Expressen: "It's nice that bigger clubs are taking notice, but we have one season here. "Now we've advanced to the next round of the Conference League qualifiers. "Then we have a top battle in the Allsvenskan to focus on. That's where my main focus is." Directly asked if he could imagine moving abroad this summer, he replied: "No. That's not relevant. "I feel good here. I like Hammarby, I like Söder. I feel like I'm developing and playing a lot of matches." Team-mate Sebastian Tounetki laughed off the idea of Eriksson leaving the club - and said a figure in the region of £8m was a more realistic figure than the £2m which has been quoted. "Victor has been the best center back in the league. Maybe also the best player in the series. "He has been hugely important for us. Wins most of the duels, huge on those bits. Shock scenes as Celtic and Ajax fans clash during Como Cup friendly tournament in Italy "You said two million euros? I think they have to go up a few notches if they are going to get him. In my book he is worth over 100 million kronor. He has everything a good center back should have." Manager Hellberg said: "He's not for sale. "He has played every minute of these last four games. It is a very big moment for me too. "I have worked with him for four years in Värnamo, in Hammarby now. "I have seen how hard he has worked. Developed as a person and a player. I am so, so proud of him." 3 Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page
