Image source, SNS Published1 hour agoFormer Rangers winger Rabbi Matondo is on trial with Hibernian while Torino midfielder Gvidas Gineitis admits joining Celtic would be of interest. Former Rangers winger Rabbi Matondo has joined Hibernian at their training camp in La Manga as the 26-year-old Wales international looks to win a contract after his summer release by Brann.
Market Impact
(Daily Record, external) Lithuania midfielder Gvidas Gineitis, the 22-year-old who Celtic pursued this summer, says joining the Scottish champions from Torino "would be an interesting and rewarding experience". (15min.It, external) Sabah Kerjota, the 25-year-old winger who joined Heart of Midlothian from Sambenedettese last year, says his journey from Italy's Serie D to a first call-up by Albania is proof that data-driven recruitment can make dreams come true. (Daily Record, external) Rangers goalkeeper Rydnn McGuire turned down offers from English clubs before signing a three-year contract as the 17-year-old sees a pathway to the first team at Ibrox. (Rangers Review, external) Bobby Williamson admits his application to be the new Scotland head coach was not realistic despite Ally McCoist, Scott Brown and Kevin Thomson agreeing to be assistants, especially as his European coaching licence lapsed 10 years ago, but suggests his record of leading Kilmarnock to a Scottish Cup win and four regional titles with Uganda is "not a bad career".
The market angle matters because clubs rarely move in isolation. Contract timing, squad balance, wage structure, and competition for the same player can all change the pace of a transfer story.
