Forster to return to Celtic?
Southampton goalie Fraser Forster - who played for Celtic from 2010-2014 - could be in line for a sensational return to Parkhead. Current Celtic goalkeeper Scott Bain has picked up a short-term injury and the Scottish Sun believe that the Englishman could re-join the Scottish champions.
Bain ruled out with injury

King completes Rangers move
Leicester City midfielder Andy King has finalised a loan move to join Rangers for the 2019/20 season. The Wales internationalist was at Ibrox last night as Rangers picked up a 3-1 win against Denmark's FC Midtjylland.
Lafferty to Kilmarnock?
Ex-Rangers striker Kyle Lafferty could be on his way to Ayrshire after the forward's Ibrox contract was ripped up at the end of last season. Killie manager Angelo Alessio told the Scottish Sun: "The club is working every day to get new players in. But we have got to be realistic. Lafferty and some players earn a lot of money.”

Norwegian defender Kris Ajer will be offered a contract extension, according to reports in the Daily Record. The 21-year-old signed a new deal last summer but Neil Lennon is reportedly keen to tie the centre-back down on a longer contract.
