Hibs reject bid from Rangers for Scott Allan

News has broken tonight that
Hibernian have rejected an initial first bid from Rangers for star midfielder
Scott Allan.

The bid, undisclosed as yet, has
not been enough to persuade Alan Stubbs to part with his marquee player, but
Rangers are certain to return with a second bid to further up the ante on the
player.

Allan is on record as being a Rangers
supporter, whose idol is Paul Gascoigne, and is widely regarded as wanting a
move to Rangers, but as yet Rangers have not made any known attempt at
snatching his signature.

His monetary value to Hibs is
unclear, and Rangers’ coffers are finite, but manager Mark Warburton would be
willing to push the boat out on securing such a coveted player.

The news broke on Sky Sports’
Twitter account this evening:

This would be a signing Rangers
fans desperately need to see.
