Tottenham youngster Mikey Moore could be set for Rangers loan
The 17-year-old was left out of new manager Thomas Frank 's 29-man squad for the pre-season trip to Hong Kong, remaining behind on Sunday as his team-mates departed for the Far East.
Moore was left behind as he is expected to leave the club on loan and Rangers have reportedly emerged as favourites for his signature.
The teenager has made 21 first-team appearances for Spurs and scored his first goal in a 3-0 win over Elfsborg on the way to his team's Europa League success. The wide player stayed on the bench as Ange Postecoglou's side beat Manchester United in the final in Bilbao.
He then represented England in the Under-19 European Championship.
While Rangers are hoping to sign a teenager from the Premier League, they have lost two others.
Newcastle have announced that they have signed 16-year-old Scotland youth internationals Oliver Goodbrand and Alfie Hutchison from Rangers for their Under-18 squad.
Defender Goodbrand was a regular for Rangers Under-18s and made his B team debut in a Glasgow Cup win over Partick Thistle.
Hutchison, who scored two goals in another Glasgow Cup triumph over Queen's Park, had joined Rangers from Hearts 12 months ago.
Newcastle academy director Steve Harper said on his club's website: 'Our recruitment team deserve great credit for bringing Alfie and Oliver to the club and we're confident they'll benefit from the environment we've created here.'

Crawley falls late as India take upper hand
Fifth Rothesay Test, The Kia Oval (day three of five)India 224 (Nair 57, Atkinson 5-33, Tongue 3-57) & 396 (Jaiswal 118; Tongue 5-125)England 247 (Crawley 64, Brook 53; Krishna 4-62, Siraj 4-86) & 50-1 (Siraj 1-11)England need 324 runs to win Scorecard Zak Crawley was dismissed from the penultimate ball of day three after England had started to make steady progress in pursuit of an imposing 374 to win the fifth Test against India at The opener was bowled by Mohammed Siraj for 14 as the hosts reached 50-1 at the close, needing a further 324 runs to win, with Ben Duckett unbeaten on 34 to conclude another gripping day. Despite Crawley's departure, England will be boosted by the much-improved batting conditions after they spent most of the day in the field as India racked up 396 under brighter skies. The pitch flattened and offered far less seam movement, with Yashasvi Jaiswal's sublime 118 the highlight for the tourists. There was also a surprising maiden Test fifty for Akash Deep, who added 107 for the third wicket with Jaiswal as England started poorly, unable to take the wicket of the nightwatchman until the final 10 minutes before lunch. Deep was put down on 21, one of six dropped catches in the innings for England as their makeshift bowling line-up - without the injured Chris Woakes - toiled admirably but were again let down in the field. Gus Atkinson pinned captain Shubman Gill lbw for 12 with the first ball after lunch as England improved, but Ravindra Jadeja continued his fine form with 53 and Washington Sundar, with India nine down, blitzed four sixes in a 39-ball fifty to give India the upper hand. Josh Tongue claimed the final three wickets, having also dismissed Jaiswal earlier, to finish with 5-125 for his wholehearted efforts. It feels fitting that England chased 371 to beat India in the opening match at Headingley to ignite a fiery series, though there is rain forecast for Sunday which could impact their aim of comfortably completing the highest Test chase at The Oval, which is currently England's 263-9 against Australia in 1902. Deep and Jaiswal punish England's sloppy morning India started the day with a lead of 52 and there was an immediate sense of trepidation regarding England's depleted bowling attack and the sun shining for the best batting conditions of the Test so who was put down on 20 and 40 late on day three, took the back seat early on as Deep was England's unlikely dropped the chance in the slips, but Deep's half-century was a well-deserved punishment for England bowling far too short in the opening got the breakthrough shortly before lunch, with Deep caught in the covers for 66, and Atkinson's wicket of Gill saw hopes of a fightback the imperious Jaiswal remained, reaching his second century of the series from 127 balls as he expertly punished England's inconsistency. Collectively, they bowled far too short and wide to him, exemplified by 72 runs of his first 100 runs being scored behind square on the off six drops – others being Brook's spill of Karun Nair at slip on 12 and a much tougher chance for Duckett at leg-slip when Jaiswal had 110 – were their most in an innings since 2006 and India's prodigious opener ensured they paid the price.

Aaron Ramsdale speaks out on what made him want Newcastle move
Aaron Ramsdale has completed his loan move from Southampton to Newcastle, pointing out three reasons behind his motivation to move to St James' Park. The 27-year-old spent just one year with the Saints after signing from Arsenal and it was not a great season as Southampton finished bottom of the Premier League table. The England international's reputation remained intact, though, and he is straight back into the top flight. The Magpies have brought in the goalkeeper on a season-long loan with an option to buy next summer and he expects that will be taken up as he says he will be with the club for the 'foreseeable future'. There were multiple reasons that Ramsdale was attracted to Newcastle, firstly mentioning St James' Park itself, where he has played many times before. Speaking on his unveiling as a Newcastle player, he said: 'It's great to be here. I've always loved coming here and I've seen how passionate and loud the fans can be. I've always loved playing here at St. James' Park – I've not always had the greatest of results, but when the fans get behind you it's some place.' The Magpies finished fifth last season, returning to the Champions League as a result and the chance to play at Europe's top table again was obviously also an attraction for the stopper. 'Coming to the stadium and seeing it empty today, it's quite surreal to think that this is going to be home for the foreseeable future,' he said. 'I've got the kit on, it's got the nice Champions League badge on the sleeve and I'm delighted to be here.' Another great appeal for Ramsdale is getting to work with manager Eddie Howe again after their time together at Bournemouth. The goalkeeper enjoyed his Premier League breakthrough with the Cherries, making 37 top flight appearances under Howe in the 2019/20 season. 'Working with the manager and his coaching staff again were a big draw for me,' he said. 'They've already had a great influence on my career and the gaffer turned me from a man into a professional footballer at Bournemouth. He really showed me the ropes so the manager and his coaching staff were a huge selling point for me to come here.' More Trending Newcastle already have Nick Pope and Martin Dubravka in their ranks and it is not entirely clear which goalkeeper will be first choice when the season gets underway later this month. Appearances: 183 Clean sheets: 41 Saves made: 595 Goals conceded: 278 Speaking of his new signing, Howe said: 'Aaron is an exceptional goalkeeper who adds further quality and international experience to our squad. 'Having worked with him before, I know what he can bring to us on and off the pitch, so we look forward to welcoming him into the group.' The Magpies get their Premier League campaign underway away at Aston Villa on Saturday August 16.

Motherwell 1, Rangers 1: Longelo the hero for Motherwell as he rescues a point
Jens Berthel Askou's Premiership reign started with a draw against Rangers Emmanuel Longelo was Motherwell's hero as boss Jens Berthel Askou's Premiership campaign started with a draw against Rangers at Fir Park. James Tavernier's first-half header was cancelled out in the dying stages by Longelo's strike. The Ibrox side could be forgiven for having an eye on Tuesday's Champions League qualifier against Viktoria Plzen. Tavernier headed Rangers into the lead in 14 minutes, and it looked like Rangers might build on that, but instead they fell away from the game. They were made to pay for that as Motherwell bagged a late leveller. The game started at a frantic pace, with Motherwell not letting Rangers settle on the ball, but the visitors also advancing at pace, but the game died away midway through.. James Tavernier saw a 19-yard free kick well saved inside five minutes, and Djeidi Gassama looked lively, Emmanuel Longelo and Apostolos Stamatelopoulos both went close for Motherwell in the same move. Motherwell stepped it up in the second half and should have levelled through Elijah Just five minutes in, and the hosts created several decent chances to score. Motherwell boss Askou kept faith with the side that drew against Hertha Berlin, and beat Morton in their final Premier Sports Cup group stages game. Aston Oxborough again gets the nod on the bench. Rangers manager Russell Martin made one change to the side that progressed against Panathinaikos in the Champions League second qualifying round, as Djeidi Gassama replaces Findlay Curtis. Gassama was sent flying by Lukas Fadinger just outside the box in five minutes, with Tavernier lining up the free kick, but Calum Ward made a brilliant save to push it over the top left corner. A terrific Rangers move then ended with Gassama sending a first-time shot curling round the right post from eight yards out in nine minutes. Motherwell went close in 10 minutes when Johnny Koutroumbis' cross from the right was stabbed goalwards by defender Nasser Djiga, but keeper Jack Butland was alert to it and saved his blushes. Danilo had a snap-shot out of nothing that bounced off the top of the bar from just inside the box in 13 minutes, as Rangers searched for an opening. But Rangers got the opener in 14 minutes when Joe Rothwell's corner was headed in at the back post by Tavernier. Motherwell went close in 23 minutes when Watt sent Longelo racing through on the left and his shot was well parried by Butland, who also blocked Stamatelopoulos' follow-up. Slattery picked out Longelo on the left side of the box in 40 minutes, but his chip flew high and wide of the right post. Tawanda Maswanhise's cross from the right was just missed by Just with a diving header in 41 minutes. Kieran Dowell's cross from the right was headed at the back post by Gassama in 47 minutes, but was comfortably held by Ward. Three minutes later, Longelo's left wing free kick made its way to Stamatelopoulos on the right side of the box, but he fired high and wide. Slattery's free kick from wide on the left was headed just over by Just at the back post in 50 minutes. Midfielder Slattery was in the mood and sent Stamatelopoulos through on goal in 53 minutes, but Djjiga did just enough to block the Australian's shot. The unlikely figure of Paul McGinn nearly got on the score-sheet in 56 minutes, forcing a fine diving save from Butland, with the Rangers defence hacking the rebound to safety before anybody in claret and amber could pounce. Stamatelopoulos then picked out Maswanhise on the right corner of the box, but he sent his angled shot flying past the far post in 57 minutes. At the other end, John Souttar went on a run down the left, but his angled shot was well held by Ward in 63 minutes. Rothwell's corner on the left was bounced out the box, but only as far as Cameron, who let fly with a low shot that was well held by Ward in 69 minutes. Just's deep cross from the left was headed just over at the back post by Stamatelopoulos in 70 minutes, as Motherwell tried to get back level. Slattery tried his luck from distance, but sent his angled shot past the left post. But Motherwell bagged a leveller in 87 minutes when Longelo smashed in a low shot. Tom Sparrow could have won it for Motherwell in the dying stages but saw his shot well saved by Butland. MOTHERWELL: Ward, Koutroumbis, McGinn, Gordon (O'Donnell, 71), Longelo, Watt, Slattery (Sparrow, 90+1), Fadinger, Maswanhise, Just (Balmer, 90+1), Stamatelopoulos (Said, 80) Subs (not used): Oxborough (GK), Halliday, Wilson, Whyte, Ross Booked: Watt (60) RANGERS: Butland, Tavernier, Djiga, Souttar, Aarons, Rothwell (bajrami, 73), Diomande (Cameron, 63), Raskin (Barron, 73), Dowell, Gassama (Cortes, 82), Danilo (Dessers, 63) Attendance: 10,616
