Ibrox club Glasgow Rangers have been linked with Motherwell striker Louis Moult, and the reported Gers target is praised by Celtic defender Dedryck Boyata.
Boyata faced Moult, who has been linked with a move to Ibrox club Rangers, during the Scottish League Cup final between Motherwell and Celtic at Hampden Park in Glasgow last weekend.
The 26-year-old Belgium international has spoken highly of the 25-year-old striker, who has been linked with a move to Celtic’s Old Firm rivals Rangers.
A report in The Daily Record in October claimed that Queens Park Rangers in the Championship in England and Scottish Premiership side Rangers are interested in the former Stoke City striker.
Rangers fans were impressed with the performance of Moult for Motherwell against Celtic in the final of the Scottish League Cup at Hampden Park in Glasgow and want the Ibrox outfit to sign him up, as reported on HITC Sport (click here to read more).
Although Boyata was impressed with Moult, the former Manchester City centre-back has admitted that he does not know the Motherwell striker’s first name.
Boyata has been on the books of Celtic since the summer of 2015 when he joined from City for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £1.5 million.
“I don’t know his first name, but I think Moult is a good striker,” Boyata told The Scottish Sun. “He moves a lot and likes a challenge.
“He is a great finisher as well, we saw that last season too. We managed to keep the clean sheet, but he was unlucky with the header. He is a good striker.”
