What Rapid Vienna chief has said on Celtic star Marco Tilio
The Premiership champions are light in the wide areas right now as the Northern Irishman has been unable to make further additions. Tilio didn't feature in the opening day win over St Mirren despite that.
It was previously reported the 23-year-old would sign for Rapid £350,000 with an obligation to buy for £1.3million after a certain number of appearances.

Now, Katzer has admitted his club are still in the hunt and revealed they tried to sign him before he headed for Parkhead.
He said: 'There is interest. We're monitoring things.
'We had interest in him before then Celtic signed him as well.
'We're looking at players in his position and we're certainly interested in him but that doesn't mean it's a done deal.'
Tilio spent last season back in the A-League on loan with his former club Melbourne City, who wanted to secure his return again. However, it was claimed the player preferred to remain in Europe.

Hibs predicted XI vs Livingston as Legia Warsaw factors into six League Cup changes
It's back to the domestic scene this weekend for Hibs but Europe is still very much in their minds after Thursday's drama-fuelled clash with Partizan Belgrade. The Hibees lost 3-2 on the night to the Serbian opposition at Easter Road but a 2-0 away win a week prior sealed a 4-3 aggregate win in their Conference League third round qualifier, after extra time. Now they face fellow Premiership side Livingston in West Lothian this Sunday on Premier Sports Cup last 16 duty. Having gone the distance less than 72 hours prior, head coach David Gray has big decisions to make, with a play-off first leg against Legia Warsaw to come in under a week's time. If victory over two legs is secured in their latest qualifier, a money spinning Conference league phase spot is granted. With that in mind, here is our Hibs XI at Almondvale, with six changes. 1 . GK - Raphael Sallinger Nothing to do with errors made by Smith, as he more than redeemed himself in the second half. More a chance to give him a rest and see what the new shot stopper is all about | SNS Group Photo Sales 2 . RCB - Grant Hanley Comes in for O'Hora. Iredale rested last week so Scotland international provides cover on the other side this time. | SNS Group Photo Sales 3 . CB - Rocky Bushiri Warrior remains unmoved in the middle of the back three. | SNS Group Photo Sales 4 . LCB - Jack Iredale Left-sided star keeps his place. | SNS Group Photo Sales

‘Who is playing left-back?' ask puzzled Rangers fans as Russell Martin names shock lineup for Alloa clash
IT's no secret that Rangers are in dire need of a new left-back. Jefte is on his way out of Rangers with a big-money move to Palmeiras looming, while Ridvan Yilmaz is well and truly out of favour at Ibrox amid a potential return to Turkey. 2 Rangers boss Russell Martin has made a surprise call in defence Credit: Getty 2 Alloa manager Andy Graham Credit: PA Advertisement Russell Martin even allowed Robbie Fraser to leave the club permanently as he completed a move to the Scottish Championship to join Neil Lennon's Dunfermline last night. Rangers are seriously lacking options in that area as things stand with Jefte and Yilmaz's exits on the cards. And that's quite evident to see in Martin's team selection for tonight's Premier Sports Cup tie against Alloa. The Rangers boss has made as many as TEN changes from their Champions League qualifier second leg against Viktoria Plzen on Tuesday night. Advertisement Nasser Djiga is the only player to keep his place as he won't be available to feature in the Premiership clash against St Mirren next week due to his suspension. And with Jefte and Yilmaz not being selected, that leaves just Max Aarons and James Tavernier as the manager's only options at full-back, with right-back Dujon Sterling still out injured. But in a surprise decision, Martin has decided to ONLY name Aarons in the starting side, with Tavernier on the bench. That's left fans puzzled over who will fill in for Jefte at left-back, should Aarons be deployed in his preferred right side. Advertisement Oscar Cortes looks the most likely option having been named alongside Aarons, Djiga and Manny Fernandez in the first four names on the team-sheet in their match-day graphic, following Liam Kelly who starts between the sticks. The Colombian could even be starring on the right side, with Aarons back at left-back. Rangers players look terrified and exposed under Russell Martin But some fans reckon it could be teenager Bailey Rice as well, despite him never featuring in that position for the Rangers first team. It will all be made a bit clearer when the game gets underway, but for the time being fans have raised their concerns on social media. One fan hit out: "WHO at left back?" Advertisement Another said: "Are we playing Cortes left back?" While someone else replied: "I think he'll be right-back and Aarons left-back, but I'm not sure." Suggesting it's Rice, another fan said: "I'm predicting Rice at left-back. It has to be him." Another agreed: "Looks like Baily Rice is retraining as a left-back then."
