Scotland defender Nicola Docherty is set to join Rangers as the Old Firm continue their attempts to end Glasgow City's dominance of Scottish football.

The City left-back will sign a three-year deal with Gregory Vignal's side, who have recently become professional.

Docherty, 27, was part of the Scotland squad for last summer's World Cup and has 21 caps.

And more players could yet leave City, who have won the last 13 SWPL titles.

Sam Kerr, who earned a Scotland call up for the Pinatar Cup, youth international Kirsty Howat, and full international Rachel McLauchlan have also been the subject of interest from Rangers.

All three, as well as Docherty, were absent from the Glasgow City squad as they lost 2-1 to Celtic in their season opener on Friday.

However, with the transfer window closing on Sunday, all four players remain part of the City set-up and the club insists they are under contract.

"There has been interest from Rangers, but there has also been interest from many other teams for our players," said City's club manager Laura Montgomery.

"Players sign and commit themselves to a club for a season. I don't think football could operate every time a player was a little bit unhappy and was allowed to go.

“If that was the case, anybody who was on the subs' bench would be released on a Monday morning."

Steven Gerrard features for both Rangers and Liverpool as Reds Legends win charity clash | Football | Sport

Steven Gerrard played for both Liverpool and Rangers as two legends sides met at Ibrox.

Current Gers boss Gerrard played the final ten minutes for Rangers at Ibrox having spent the majority of the game in his famous No 8 Liverpool shirt.

Gerrard couldn’t find the net in the charity match, with donations going to the LFC Foundation.

Though he was always going to taste the winning feeling with the Anfield heroes ending up victorious, with all five goals coming in the first half.

Luis Garcia, Patrik Berger and Emile Heskey scored for Liverpool with Kris Boyd and Peter Lovenkrandz netting for Rangers.

Ian Rush was managing the Reds, but Gerrard’s assistant manager at Rangers, Michael Beale, says the former midfielder has his eyes on managing Liverpool in the future.

Beale told the Liverpool Echo: “We have not spoke about it. It’s a compliment of course, but at this moment in time, Liverpool have the best manager for them.

“As a supporter of the club, Steven being a passionate supporter, we don’t just support the first team, we follow it through to the U23s and 18s and we have watched some games together.

“We know what is going on at all the youth teams. He is the biggest Liverpool fan and at this moment in time, if he had to choose a manager, it would be Jurgen Klopp.

“I don’t think Steven is looking too far ahead, it is a big job and obviously that is the dream – or rather, the aim – for him long term to manage the club.

“But I think Steven would say himself, right now, the best manager for Liverpool Football Club is Jurgen Klopp. Long may that continue.”

Liverpool FC Legends squad: Jerzy Dudek, Glen Johnson, Jose Enrique, Jason McAteer, Steven Gerrard, Emile Heskey, Patrik Berger, Luis Garcia, Vladimir Smicer, Jermaine Pennant, Dirk Kuyt, Chris Kirkland, Jamie Carragher, Stephen Warnock.

Rangers FC Legends squad: Ronald Wattereus, Richard Gough, Jonatan Johansson, Peter Lovenkrands, Jorg Albertz, Kris Boyd, Michael Mols, Nacho Novo, Carlos Cuellar, Lee McCulloch, Sasa Papac, Clint Hill, Alan Hutton, Marvin Andrews, Gregory Vignal, Pedro Mendes, Trevor Steven, Alex Rae, Steven Gerrard, Thomas Buffel, Charlie Adam.

18 Favorite Ferraris from the 2017 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance

With 2017 being Ferrari’s 70th Anniversary, it was natural that the Italian automaker was honored at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. There was one huge display with, appropriately, 70 Ferraris. Then four classes on the field—Grand Touring, Competition, Major Race Winners, and One-Off Specials.

We could go on for pages about the spectacle, the sounds of the engines, the amount of history rolling about the field on four wheels and with a lot of red paint.

Then again, there’s a better chance you would rather see what was on display. So enjoy.

1. We have to start with Ferrari’s 250 GTO (pictured at top), arguably the most legendary model from the maker. First raced in 1962, GTOs were a major reason Ferrari won the FIA’s GT championship in 1962, 1963, and 1964. Thirty-three were assembled in this configuration and if you want one today, you’ll need at least $50 million. Driving number 24 in Pebble’s Dawn Patrol is its owner, Chip Conner. His passenger is another GTO owner, Pink Floyd’s Nick Mason. And guess what? I raced this GTO in the 1978 Monterey Historic Automobile Races. Wasn’t too quick, too busy smiling.

2. Ferrari’s U.S. distributor, the legendary Luigi Chinetti, entered this 250 LM in the 1965 24 Hours of Le Mans. Driven by Jochen Rindt and American Masten Gregory, it won the French classic with a lead of five laps. Now part of the collection at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, this 250 LM is the last Ferrari to win Le Mans.

3. To celebrate its 70th anniversary, Ferrari gathered 70 of its best for a display at Pebble Beach. Hard to choose among the newest, but there’s something about the slightly evil smile on the face of the F12tdf that earned it a spot on this list.

4. Dawn Patrol and another Ferrari Testa Rossa, right? Wrong. This is a 1960 Ferrari 246 S Dino Fantuzzi Spyder. It is the little brother of the TR, with a 85.0-in. wheelbase versus the Testa Rossa’s 89.7. Instead of the 300-horsepower 3.0-liter V-12, the Dino has a 250-horspower 2.6-liter V-6. Both share the same memorable bodywork, just different sizes.

5. This is one of the dramatic Pinin Farina-designed Ferrari Berlinettas from the mid-1950s. A 1954 375 MM, it was the design firm’s 1954 Paris Show car, created for Italian film director Roberto Rossellini.

6. Boano built few Ferraris, but they are beautiful. This is one of a trio—one 250 GT, two 410s—with a sleek shape and the tail fins of the mid-1950s. Here we see the 1956 250 GT on Pebble’s awards ramp.

7. Ferrari and Pininfarina were partners for years, the design firm signaling what Maranello would be producing. This famous show car from Pininfarina is the 1967 Ferrari 206 Dino Competizione Pininfarina Coupe.

8. Does this look ready for battle or what? A 1958 Ferrari 335 Sport Scaglietti Spyder, it was built for Luigi Chinetti and raced in the U.S.

9. Another Ferrari story. This is the 1959 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa TR59/60 in which Olivier Gendebien and Paul Frere won the 1960 24 Hours of Le Mans. Gendebien won Le Mans four times, three with Phil Hill and that one with Frere. Decades later, several of us were at dinner with Hill and Frere. The latter—a consummate Belgian gentleman—turned to Hill and apologized for winning in 1960. He said, “Phil, you and Olivier should have both had four victories.” We were all stunned.

10. One of the most famous cars in Ferrari’s history, this 166 MM Touring Barchetta won both the Mille Miglia and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1949. Victories in those two major endurance events did a great deal to establish the reputation of the fledgling Ferrari factory.

11. We have to have one of the Ferrari 250 GT SWB Scaglietti Berlinettas, the predecessor of the 250 GTO. This one is from 1961 and won its class in that year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans. Sergio Scaglietti was responsible for shaping many of Ferrari’s finest race cars.

12. For 1967, the Ferrari 412 P P3/4 Competiziones were built to compete again the Ford GT40s. Out back is a 4.0-liter V-12. Why yellow? This car was originally raced by Ferrari’s importer to Belgium, Jacques Swaters, and his Ecurie Francorchamps team. Actor/singer Dean Martin’s son, Dino, had this car semi-legalized in the late 1960s and drove it on the streets. Chick magnet extraordinaire.

13. One of a famous short run of Ferraris from Zagato. Built in 1956 with a double-bubble roof, it is based on a long-wheelbase (LWB) TdF chassis. There’s a 3.0-liter V-12 up front, with 0-60 in a little over 5.0 seconds, top speed just shy of 150 mph.

14. You want exclusive Ferraris? How about one of six. That’s how many Ferrari Sergios were constructed in honor of Sergio Pininfarina, who ran that famed design house. Based on Ferrari’s 458 Special, three of the Sergios were sold in the U.S. by invitation. With 597 horsepower, the Sergios were sold for a reported $3 million.

15. We need a Ferrari Formula 1 car. This is a 1975 312 T driven by Niki Lauda. That was, of course, one of the Austrian’s championship years (1975, 1977, 1984). Wish you could have heard these as they screamed through the streets of Monaco.

16. This 1951 Ferrari 340 America Vignale Berlinetta won the grueling 1951 Mille Miglia driven by Gigi Villorsei through terrible weather.

17. Another Mille Miglia-winning Ferrari, though this one a tragic story. Piero Taruffi drove this Ferrari 315 S Scaglietti Spyder to win the Italian classic in 1957. Sadly, Alfonso de Portago crashed his Ferrari 335 S, killing himself, co-driver Edmont Nelson and 10 spectators. Italy ended the Mille Miglia. By the way, that is Sir Jackie Stewart driving the car and the “wee Scot” looks as though he’d have sit on a phone book to race it.

18. And while we’re on the subject of needing to be propped up while driving. This is the 1958 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa Scaglietti Spyder in which Phil Hill and Olivier Gendebien won that year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans. The pair would win three of those French classics. There was terrible weather with pouring rain through much of the race. Hill was famous for his very fast times during the rain and explained he propped himself up to create a gap between his visor and the windscreen to get a clear view ahead. How did he prop himself up? He sat on the tool kit.

18 Favorite Ferraris from the 2017 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance

With 2017 being Ferrari’s 70th Anniversary, it was natural that the Italian automaker was honored at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. There was one huge display with, appropriately, 70 Ferraris. Then four classes on the field—Grand Touring, Competition, Major Race Winners, and One-Off Specials.

We could go on for pages about the spectacle, the sounds of the engines, the amount of history rolling about the field on four wheels and with a lot of red paint.

Then again, there’s a better chance you would rather see what was on display. So enjoy.

1. We have to start with Ferrari’s 250 GTO (pictured at top), arguably the most legendary model from the maker. First raced in 1962, GTOs were a major reason Ferrari won the FIA’s GT championship in 1962, 1963, and 1964. Thirty-three were assembled in this configuration and if you want one today, you’ll need at least $50 million. Driving number 24 in Pebble’s Dawn Patrol is its owner, Chip Conner. His passenger is another GTO owner, Pink Floyd’s Nick Mason. And guess what? I raced this GTO in the 1978 Monterey Historic Automobile Races. Wasn’t too quick, too busy smiling.
