Celtic face European competition for Hibs midfielder Chaiwa - gossip

Celtic continue to pursue Hibs midfielder, while Paul Dickov believes a return to Rangers would benefit Scotland defender Nathan Patterson.

Celtic are stepping up their pursuit of Hibernian midfielder Miguel Chaiwa, but they're not alone in the race. The 21-year-old has caught the eye of European clubs Genoa, Toulouse, and Club Brugge, all vying for his signature this summer. It's shaping up to be a competitive transfer battle for the talented youngster.

In other Rangers news, midfielder Jose Cifuentes is set to return to Ibrox after MLS side Toronto opted not to make his loan deal permanent. The Ecuadorian's future at the club remains uncertain, but his return adds depth to the midfield.

Former Scotland striker Paul Dickov has weighed in on Nathan Patterson's career path, suggesting a return to Rangers would be a smart move for the Everton and Scotland defender. With game time limited at Goodison Park, a switch back north could reignite his form.

Meanwhile, Celtic-linked Scotland defender Scott McKenna showed his resilience by shaking off an injury scare to start for Dinamo Zagreb in their Croatian Cup final victory over Reijka on Wednesday. His performance will only fuel speculation about a potential move to Parkhead.

Rangers have also seen defender Derek Cornelius play his final game for the club, as the on-loan Marseille man was allowed to join Canada's pre-World Cup training camp in Charlotte. His departure leaves a gap at the back for the Gers.

On the international front, Dundee United's Dario Naamo is expected to be fit for this summer's World Cup if he accepts a call-up from Iraq. The defender's recovery is good news for both club and country.

Finally, Aberdeen manager Stephen Robinson has issued a cautionary note, warning that it will take more than one transfer window to fix the issues that have plagued the Dons' season. Patience will be key as they look to rebuild.
