Rangers in queue for Fulham, Middlesbrough target Celik

The agent of Sweden U21 ace Mervan Celik has confirmed that Rangers are in the race for his client's services.

The 21-year old winger is out of contract after his contract with Gothenburg outfit GAIS expired and is now been tracked by the likes of Fulham, Middlesbrough and some clubs in Germany as well as the Glasgow giants.

Celik's representative, Hasan Cetinkaya, admits that 'Gers are in with a chance but says a major decision on the player's future is yet to be made.

"We are aware there are deadlines being put in place by some of the interested clubs," he said.

"Mervan is a calm guy and won't be rushed because this move is vital for his career.

"He has an offer from the English Premiership, from a top club in the Championship and is also the subject of interest in Germany.

"But money or the respective countries are not important. What is important is having the chance to play with the right team.

"Rangers are most definitely among the clubs who fit the bill.

"They are a famous club and always have the opportunity to play in Europe. McCoist is also a fantastic young coach who has played at a high level."
