Hull City have definite interest in 25-year-old Rangers midfielder Nicolas Raskin, who is with Belgium at the World Cup.

However, with an offer understood to be in the region of £12m-14m, that is unlikely to be enough given the Scottish Premiership side are believed to value him at £20m-plus.

Bologna are also said to be an admirer of Raskin.

The midfielder joined Rangers in January 2023 and has made 145 appearances for the Ibrox club, scoring 13 times.

New Rangers manager Derek McInnes and a selection of players were pictured at the club's training ground on Thursday reporting for pre-season training.

Raskin's Belgium face New Zealand in World Cup Group G on Saturday (04:00 BST), seeking their first win of the tournament after two draws so far.
