Swedish youngster Celik attracting Rangers interest

Mervan Celik has emerged as a transfer target for Scottish giants Rangers.

The 21-year old Swedish midfielder is available on a free transfer after his contract with Gothenburg outfit GAIS expired although 'Gers would be required to pay around £100,000 compensation as he came through the academy there.

Reports suggest that the likes of Fulham, Middlesbrough, Genoa, Parma and Gaziantepspor are all keen on Celik with the agent of the winger confirming there is plenty of interest.

"There are many clubs who have been interested and, had it been any other player, it would have been clear long ago but Mervan has been calm," said agent Hasan Cetinkaya.

"Right now it is about two clubs and Mervan has not decided yet."
