Celtic, Rangers and Southampton battle for Charlton Athletic's Aribo

Celtic, Rangers, Southampton and Rennes are all vying to secure the signature of Charlton Athletic's Joe Aribo, Goal understands.

Arsenal have also been scouting Aribo, but they are thought to no longer hold an interest in Aribo, whose contract expires on June 30.

Aribo's representatives have begun talks with other parties, as permitted by current transfer rules, to secure a pre-contract at the end of the season, but it remains unclear whether a promotion back to the Championship can keep him at The Valley.
