Emirhan Demircan 'rejects' Ranger transfer offer as Bayern Munich starlet links up with pricey Celtic flop instead
Emirhan Demircan has knocked back an offer from Rangers to join them this summer, according to a report.
The former Bayern Munich youngster has left the Allianz Arena as a free agent after his contract expired. Demircan progressed through the ranks in Bavaria after joining from city rivals 1860 Munich as a teenager.

But now he's moved on, although he won't be joining the American revolution at Ibrox.

Fabrizio Romano, amongst others, claims that Gers were one of the clubs to put an offer to Demircan along with Turkish giants Besiktas and Bundesliga outfit Hoffenheim.
But the Turkish U21 international has snubbed a move to his homeland as well as staying in Germany to join FC Utrecht in the Netherlands.

He has agreed a three-year deal with the Eredivise club and has undergone a medical ahead of putting pen to paper.
And he'll team up with former Celtic goalkeeper Vasilis Barkas in Holland.
The Greek keeper was a £5million disaster at Parkhead, making just 24 appearances over three years with the club.
He was loaned to Utrecht for the 2022/23 season and made the move permanent that summer, and he remains the Dutch club's first choice keeper on a contract until 2028.

Josh Smith homers and scores all 3 runs for the Texas Rangers in a 3-1 win over the White Sox
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Josh Smith homered and scored all three Texas runs in his fifth consecutive two-hit game to help the Rangers beat the Chicago White Sox 3-1 on Friday night. The leadoff hitter had a single in the first and scored on Corey Seager's sacrifice fly. Smith's seventh homer was a 396-foot drive to right-center in the third, then he walked ahead of Marcus Semien's RBI double that made it 3-0 in the fifth. Smith was 2 for 3 with a walk and is hitting .435 (10 for 23) during a career-best streak of five multihit games. Jacob Webb (4-3), the second of seven pitchers in a bullpen game for the Rangers, worked two innings for the victory as they won for the fifth time in six games. Robert Garcia loaded the bases in the ninth before closing out his fifth save in seven chances. White Sox starter Adrian Houser (2-2) allowed three runs and six hits over five innings. He struck out two and walked four. Shawn Armstrong started for Texas and struck out five while retiring all nine batters the first three innings. His season highs before Friday were seven batters faced and three strikeouts. Luis Robert was the first White Sox hitter to reach base, on an infield single with two outs in the fifth when he was initially called out before a replay challenge. He also had an RBI double in the seventh. Key moment The White Sox had a run in and two on in the seventh when Texas reliever Chris Martin retired the only two batters he faced. Key stat Seager is 4 for 45 (.089) with 15 strikeouts in 13 games since returning from the injured list May 28. But he has drawn a walk in a career-best eight games in a row after two more free passes. Up next Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom (6-2, 2.12 ERA) has allowed two runs over fewer in each of his last 10 starts The White Sox hadn't announced who will start for them Saturday. ___ AP MLB:
