Frigan is back in his home town of Rijeka for the close season and broke his silence there on reported interest from Russell Martin's side.
He said: "Rangers? That style of league would suit me. I think I'm a player for that type of football.
"I know about the interest from clubs, it's good to hear and read such things, but we'll see. Nothing has been decided yet.
"Things are in the hands of my agent and when there is something more concrete, we will know. We will weigh everything up and choose the best option.
"I have a good season behind me, some clubs are contacting me, but we will see what is best.

"Nothing is ruled out and we will see what happens in this transfer window.
"I'm in no hurry and there's plenty of interest in me. Of course, that makes every player happy.

Ex-Scottish Premiership star ordered to return to Scotland and attend court over claims of domestic abuse
His trial began in May before being delayed IN THE DOCK Ex-Scottish Premiership star ordered to return to Scotland and attend court over claims of domestic abuse Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FOOTBALLER Kevin van Veen has been ordered to return to Scotland and attend court over claims of domestic abuse. The Dutch striker, 34, is alleged to have carried out a catalogue of incidents against his former partner at addresses in Cancun, Mexico, Lanarkshire, Inverclyde, and Renfrewshire. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Silhouette of soccer player standing in stadium with a ball Credit: Getty 2 Kevin van Veen has played for several Scottish clubs Credit: Willie Vass He denies any wrongdoing and a trial began at Hamilton Sheriff Court in May before being delayed. The case called last month where it emerged van Veen was set to be seen by psychiatrists. Today, the court heard he had been assessed but that a final report had not been provided to his legal team. Van Veen, who recently signed for Dutch club FC Eindhoven, was not in the dock for the brief hearing and is understood to be back in the Netherlands. He played in Scotland for Motherwell, Kilmarnock and St Mirren, with the latter ripping up his contract when the allegations first came to light. Sheriff Shirley McKenna said he should be present when the case calls next week. Andy Thomson, defending, said: "We were waiting on a psychiatric report and he has been seen. "It is suggested that this case be continued until next week where we will furnish the court and the Crown with the report and can decide the course of action." Sheriff McKenna said: "He needs to be here. "He has not been here the last couple of times, I understand he is not in the country but he needs to be here if there is to be resolution unless there is going to be an examination of facts." Depute fiscal Scott O'Connor said he had 'no difficulties' with the case being continued. A trial had earlier heard Van Veen's ex-girlfriend, 33, allege he twisted her wrist at his home in Uddingston, Lanarkshire. She further alleged a holiday in Mexico was 'two weeks of mental torture' because of him 'shouting and screaming' in her face as well as being accused of being a 'slag and a slut' over a dress he deemed too tight. And she claimed that he kept tabs on her Instagram account in case she had liked photos of other men. He faces one charge under domestic abuse laws which alleges incidents between September 2021 and July last year. Prosecutors allege he repeatedly prevented her from sleeping and turned up at the homes of her family members and refused to leave when asked. The footballer is said to have repeatedly demanded that she attend at his property and persistently called and texted her and her family members. He is also accused of locking her inside his home.

Elgin City boss Allan Hale on why he's not writing off Edinburgh City - despite their 15-point deduction
Elgin City boss Allan Hale says writing off clubs after 15-point deductions so early in the season makes no sense. His views come ahead of hosting Edinburgh City, who were docked that amount by the SPFL after suffering an insolvency event last month. Inverness were hit by the same margin in League One and escaped the drop due to their strong form last year and Edinburgh's third-placed finish in League Two suggests they'll have a fighting chance. They already have beaten Stranraer 2-1 and fought back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Annan Athletic to move to -11 points in the fourth tier. Edinburgh took 10 points from Elgin last term as their promotion hopes were dashed in the play-off semis by Dick Campbell's East Fife, who went up after beating Annan in the final. Annan squeezed past Elgin in the other semi-final to end the Black and Whites' bid for a first-ever promotion to League One. Hale is sure their weekend opponents will believe they have a fighting chance to stay up, while his side seek to add to their sole point after narrow losses to Annan and East Kilbride and a draw at in-form Dumbarton. He said: 'It's so early. When things like this happen, people jump to conclusions and say they'll finish bottom, which is not sensible when you consider what Edinburgh achieved last season, and the squad that they have. 'We drew once and lost three times against them last season, so we know we're going up against a good side. They play good football and they have a clear identity. 'Despite our results, we feel like we're in a good place. We're getting some players fitter and our confidence is starting to show within our performances. 'We will focus on the things we do well. We feel we have a chance against anyone.' Josh Walker scored a swerving opener in last week's 1-1 league draw at Dumbarton, with Scott Honeyman levelling for the Sons in the second half. It was a result which put City's first point on the board. The 24-year-old ex-Annan and Queen of the South attacker was snapped up earlier this month after playing just once for League One side Stenhousemuir after leaving Queens. Hale was delighted for Walker to open his account, but he revealed the words of advice which have been given to all City's front-line. He said: 'Josh is a really good technical player. He can go outside and inside. 'We just want him to do things a little bit quicker, just speed the game up a little bit. He took that message on board against Dumbarton and he took his goal really well. It was an excellent strike – the goalkeeper was never saving it. 'When he is in those forward areas, he has to get shots away early, which we're asking all our forward players to do more of, rather than score the perfect goal and walk it in. 'Josh has settled in really well within the group and his fitness and sharpness will improve. 'The way we play is slightly different to what he's been used to, but he's a really good addition for us.' Last week, Elgin brought in Arbroath midfielder Ali Spalding, 19, on loan for the season, with a January recall option, and he came off the bench in the second half at Dumbarton. Hale explained why he made the move and what he feels the title-winning player will add to the Moray side. He added: 'Against Inverness, we saw we were having to reply on Miko Virtanen and Mark Gallagher, who have had niggles. 'With Russell Dingwall and Lewis Hyde out injured, it was important to give ourselves another option in that area and not have to rely on the same players with the busy schedule we've got between now and the end of September. 'We were aware of Ali being available on loan and he only played 20 minutes on Saturday but showed up well. 'He's positive, with a good engine, and looks to play forward at the earliest opportunity. 'He's 19, but he made 30 appearances for Arbroath, who won League One last season, so that can only be a good thing for us.' Ross Draper is a doubt for Saturday's game against Edinburgh, joining the casualty list of Russell Dingwall, Lewis Hyde, Kyle Girvan and Owen Cairns.
