Flynn Downes 'wanted' by Rangers boss Russell Martin as mega Southampton price tag tests 49ers transfer resolve
The playmaker was a key player under Martin at St Mary's having previously played for him at Swansea Southampton playmaker Flynn Downes is reportedly a target for Rangers this summer. New boss Russell Martin is said to be keen on a reunion with the 26-year-old in the Scottish Premiership - having previously managed the 26-year-old at Swansea and the Saints. Downes was a key member of the Southampton team that secured promotion through the play-offs in the 2023/34 campaign while on loan from West Ham. He would return to to the south coast ahead of their return to the Premier League for a £15million fee. The Sun report that the newly relegated St Mary's side would demand at least £10million to sell Downes - and could price out Rangers. But with the American revolution in full flow at Ibrox, CEO Patrick Stewart has promised Martin he'll be handed a significant chunk of the £20million set to be injected in the Premiership giants by their new owners.. It could be a big call by sporting director Kevin Thelwell, with the report also noting Nottingham Forest left-back Harry Toffolo is a target as he prepares to leave the club as a free agent. The report comes after Record Sport revealed Conor Coady and Dor Turgerman on the shortlist of targets this summer. Negotiations have started with Leicester City over a potential deal to bring in experience Coady - while rising talent Turgerman has opened the door to a move by admitting he is ready to leave Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Former Southampton boss Ivan Juric appointed Atalanta manager
The Croatian endured a dreadful tenure at St Mary's after taking the reins, four days before Christmas last year, winning just two of 16 matches and immediately resigning when their relegation was confirmed. Before that, Juric had an ill-fated two-month stint at Roma from September to November 2024 but he has now signed a deal until June 30, 2027, to replace Gian Piero Gasperini at the Gewiss Stadium. He has big shoes to fill in Bergamo as Gasperini guided Atalanta to a third-place finish in Serie A to secure a spot in next season's Champions League, while he won the Europa League with them in 2023-24. Juric – whose coaching CV includes three separate stints at Genoa in two-and-a-half years, followed by spells at Hellas Verona and Torino – will officially start his role from July 1. 'Atalanta BC is delighted to announce that Ivan Juric will be the club's new men's first-team manager, starting from 1 July 2025,' a statement on the club's website read.
