Loading...The Scottish Sun – GLASGOW, Milad Mohammadi could find himself at the centre of an Old Firm tug of war.
SunSport told on Thursday that Rangers were interested in Iran’s roly-poly throw-in ace.
But it’s thought Celtic are also weighing up a possible swoop for the Akhmat Grozny left-back.
Despite Everton opting to pull the plug on a move for Kieran Tierney, his future is still uncertain.
The Hoops are poised for big-money bids for their 21-year-old and have been scanning the globe in case they need to find a replacement.
Two-footed Mohammadi, who can also play as a winger, wing-back and right-back, is thought to be one of the names on their radar.
He took his cap tally to 21 after coming off the bench in two of Iran’s World Cup games.
Mohammadi, 24, became an internet sensation with his extravagant throw-in routine during the group clash with Spain.
He’s been with Russian top-flight side Akhmat since 2016 and starred in a wing-back role as they finished ninth last term.
With a year left on his current deal, would-be buyers will have to stump up at least £2million if they hope to land him.
Gers boss Steven Gerrard is looking for a left-back.
