"Atalanta have been in touch with Rangers about Nicolas Raskin and the Belgium midfielder will cost more than £17m, but any deal for the 25-year-old will have to wait until the end of the World Cup. Reports in France have claimed that Lyon are preparing a bid of less than £17m for Youssef Chermiti, but that is expected to fall way short of Rangers' £25m valuation of the 22-year-old striker. Tottenham Hotspur have told Mikey Moore that he will be loaned out again next season clubs from the German Bundesliga and Dutch Eredivisie have registered their interest in the 18-year-old winger, who spent last season on loan with Rangers.
