Pedro Caixinha’s latest target Fabio Cardoso looks to be available for £1m, according to the Daily Record.

The defender’s boss at Vitoria Setubal, Jose Couceiro, admits he’s powerless to stop the 23-year-old moving to Rangers if a big bid comes in.

Talks continue over another target, Carlos Pena, says the Daily Mail.

He’s known in Mexico as ‘Gullit’ for looking like Dutch legend Ruud, and would require the Ibrox side to make an appeal for a work permit.


Celtic’s Leigh Griffiths wants to play a more pivotal role in the Scottish Cup final than he did in the League Cup final against the same opponents, reports the Evening Times.

The striker was a late sub in that game, and insists he’s ready to take his chance this time around as the Hoops chase a historic treble.

Former Aberdeen captain Russell Anderson tells The Press and Journal that beating Celtic at Hampden would be a fitting reward for a fine campaign by Derek McInnes’ side.


The Herald features a revealing interview with cup final ref Bobby Madden on his fight against cancer and being the subject of online rumours and abuse.

 


The Courier reports on a frustrating night for Dundee United in their play-off first leg against Hamilton.

The Tangerines were denied a stonewall penalty and had Simon Murray wrongly sent off – but word is that they’ve been told an appeal would be successful.

Accies star David Templeton says he’s happy to play whatever role in the second leg, just as long as they win. (Daily Record)

Manchester United are expected to bring in three or four players this summer – and Antoine Griezmann is set to be the first, according to the newspapers.

The France forward has been heavily linked with leaving Atletico Madrid this summer.

The Daily Mirror reports United are set to trigger Griezmann’s release clause, while the Independent claims the Red Devils are confident of wrapping up a deal before the end of June.

The Manchester Evening News adds that United could also target Griezmann’s team-mate Jan Oblak, if goalkeeper David De Gea leaves for Real Madrid this summer.


Manchester City’s summer clear-out gathered pace on Thursday, with four players told they can leave.

Manager Pep Guardiola is expecting to be busy this summer and the Daily Telegraph claims Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci, Tottenham’s Kyle Walker and one of Alex Sandro and Benjamin Mendy are the main targets.


Pablo Zabaleta has been widely linked with a free transfer to West Ham this summer – and the Hammers could be asking him to bring a friend.

The Sun reports West Ham hope Zabaleta can persuade City striker Kelechi Iheanacho to move to the London Stadium as well.

West Brom, Leicester and Everton have all been linked with a move for Troy Deeney – but he will not come on the cheap.

The Daily Mail says Watford will demand a £35million fee for the 28-year-old striker.
