Chris Sutton says signing Joe Aribo means Rangers are now able to challenge Celtic in the transfer market

The England under-20 international can be snapped up on a pre-contract by one of the Old Firm rivals this month ahead of a transfer worth £400,000 in compensation at the end of the season due to cross-border transfer regulations, and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top in the race.

Celtic legend Chris Sutton wouldn’t be surprised if Rangers land Campbell, though, claiming the Ibrox outfit have proved they can match the Hoops in the transfer market after landing Joe Aribo last summer.

“I read this week the comparisons between the wages at both clubs and it’s clear the gap has closed,” Sutton wrote in his Daily Record column.
