Motherwell have slapped a £3million price tag on Elliot Watt as interest in the midfielder "intensifies", according to a new report.

Rangers, Celtic and Cardiff City have all been in contact with the Fir Park club over a potential summer move for the 26-year-old.

Now, the Scottish Sun states Ibrox boss Danny Rohl is a long-time admirer of Watt, who is under contract at Motherwell until 2027 with the option of a further year.

The report claims Celtic have stepped up their interest in recent months, while English Championship side Cardiff have now entered the race for his signature.

The report adds that the Steelmen are under no pressure to sell but could be tempted to cash in on a player who has reignited his career under Jens Berthel Askou after a standout season in claret and amber.

Earlier on Thursday, Motherwell announced the departure of their manager to Ligue 1 side Toulouse, following 11 months in North Lanarkshire.

He had guided the Steelmen to a fourth-placed finish in his one and only season, with the club now on the hunt for his successor at Fir Park.
