Liverpool are favourites to land Rangers striker Nikica Jelavic.

BBC Scotland says Liverpool are in pole position to sign Jelavic as English interest in the Croatia striker intensifies.

Premier League rivals Fulham and Championship outfit West Ham United have been in contact about the 26-year-old.

Responding to interest from West Ham, Rangers boss Ally McCoist said: "They've not made an official bid.

"The reported amount would not be enough to meet the demands of the owner - £6m is not nearly enough."
