Newcastle United starlet Shane Ferguson is wanted by Rangers and Celtic.

The 17-year-old midfielder, rated as one of the brightest prospects on Tyneside, is out of contract at the end of the season and has been watched on several occasions by the Old Firm duo.

Ferguson, who represented Northern Ireland at U-17 and U-19 level, won his first U-21 cap in a 3-1 victory over Scotland this month.
