RANGERS will test the resolve of Hibs with a third bid for Scott Allan - even as Mark Warburton insists he's in the dark about a deal.

The Light Blues are refusing to accept defeat, even after Hibs knocked back two offers for their talented playmaker, the last for £225,000.

Allan, 23, has not handed in a written transfer request but has told the Easter Road club he wants to leave and join their championship rivals, his boyhood favourites.

Rangers are likely to allow the dust to settle this week, but they will be back with a third bid they hope will convince Hibs to sell, rather than lose the player under freedom of contract.

Warburton was asked if his team would make another bid and said: "I have no idea. All I am worried about is my playing squad and my group of staff.

"If someone was talking about one of my players then I'd be very irate. He's not our player, he's a Hibs player and my only concern is my own staff."

Warburton also dismissed claims on social media Allan partied with Rangers players at the weekend after Hibs lost 6-2 to the Ibrox side.

He hinted the pictures were several months old and added: "I would suggest research and homework should be done in that regard."
