Briton Azim set for December return against Valenzuela

Rangers captain Lawrence Shankland, 31, is expected to make a return from hamstring surgery in early December. Manager Derek McInnes anticipates that both Shankland and team-mate Cammy Devlin will inform the rest of the squad about their upcoming match against former club Hearts at Tynecastle on Wednesday. Dujon Sterlin, a 26-year-old defender, expresses satisfaction with his current situation at Rangers, noting that his contract remains valid for another 18 months.

Former Celtic defender Charlie Mulgrew predicts that Anthony Ralston, 27, will depart from the Scottish champions in January. Colby Donovan, a 20-year-old full-back, aims to follow in the footsteps of his role model and teammate Kieran Tierney, 29. Hibernian goalkeeper Raphael Sallinger, 30, remains confident that his team is not panicked about their current position at the bottom of the Scottish Premiership.

Liverpool has shown interest in Stuttgart defender Jeltsch, according to Wednesday's gossip. Meanwhile, Hibs are hopeful that forward Martin Boyle, 33, will recover in time to face Hearts in the Scottish League Cup semi-final on Sunday. Dundee's versatile player Drey Wright, 31, has indicated his desire to remain at Dens Park beyond the expiration of his current contract, which expires next summer.
