Rangers are among a host of clubs keen on securing the services of Motherwell star Elijah Just in the coming months.
Just is understood to be a priority for Rangers, as Danny Rohl is keen on bringing the winger to Ibrox this summer.
Celtic are also keen on the New Zealand international, who is set to participate in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Which midfielder can make Rangers title winners?
Danny Rohl is looking to sign at least one…
Celtic favourites to sign Elijah Just as agent makes transfer admission
The Hoops are understood to be in pole position to secure the services of the 26-year-old this summer, according to Give Me Sport.
Celtic can offer Just Champions League football for next season, something that the Gers cannot as they finished in third place.
The winger’s agent Gustaf Grauers has fuelled further speculation that his client could be on the way this summer.
Which area should Rangers prioritise on strengthening this summer? 🤔
Andrew Cavenagh has made some bold promises!
Usually, if players are happy where they are, their agents come out and say that and quell all rumours.
Grauers revealed that there are a number of clubs interested in the New Zealand international, but also stated that no decision has been made yet.
He revealed that the player’s focus is entirely on the World Cup, and he will be jetting out to North America very soon.
Just’s agent said: “Elijah has had a very strong season and really enjoyed his football at Motherwell, where everyone around the club has been excellent with him.
“There is interest from different clubs, as you would expect, but the focus now is fully on the World Cup and we will evaluate everything properly after the tournament.”
Will Rangers now abandon their pursuit of Just?
The Ibrox outfit will find it that much harder to convince Just to snub a move to Parkhead in favour of them.
There is a good chance that they may abandon their pursuit of the winger and instead focus on other targets.
It is clear that they will be looking for new attackers, as a decision has been made not to bring Andreas Skov Olsen back for next season.
Mikey Moore also may not be back as Tottenham still have a decision to make on the 18-year-old’s future.
There have been a few attackers linked in recent weeks, but it is unclear who Rohl would want to prioritise.
