Dundee United tell Rangers to forget Goodwillie deal

Dundee United have told Rangers to put up or shut up after rejecting a derisory offer for David Goodwillie.

Rangers owner Craig Whyte has gone on record as saying that the striker was over valued at £2m with Ally McCoist openly talking about his wish to bring the striker to Ibrox.

A £1m bid for Goodwillie was dismissed by United earlier this week with Tannadice chairman Stephen Thompson fed up with the on-going speculation.

He said: “Rangers should start talking sensibly about a transfer fee for David.

‘If not, they shouldn’t bother us and instead should perhaps look elsewhere. Also, they should stop talking publicly about one of our employees.

“My message to them is that they know the value we have put on David, so come up with the money we are asking for – or forget it.”

Cardiff City and Nottingham Forest are believed to be in talks with United about taking the Scotland striker to The Championship.
