Erik Botheim Rangers transfer 'clue' from Erling Haaland decoded by Ibrox sleuths as striker echoes club mantra

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has caught the attention of Rangers fans over a potential clue on Erik Botheim's future.

Reports suggest that the Ibrox side and Marseille are both keen on the Norwegian striker after he became a free agent.

Botheim had his contract terminated at Russian side FC Krasnodar shortly after his move from Bodo/Glimt.

Ahead of making a decision on his future this summer, the 22-year-old soaked up the sun on holiday with former Norway U21 teammate Haaland.

And a comment from the former Borussia Dortmund man has sent social media speculation into overdrive.

Replying to an Instagram photo of the pair enjoying their break, he wrote: "I'm feeling it."

That became a fan favourite anthem of Rangers fans last season during their run to the Europa League final.

The song echoed at Ibrox after several big European performances - including after Haaland's former side Dortmund were sent out of the competition by Gio van Bronckhorst 's men.

Whether Haaland intended it or not, fans have taken it as a hint that the Scottish Premiership could be Botheim's next destination.
