Spurs star Archie Gray is a huge Celtic fan - but he can't wait to play against Rangers at Ibrox.

The 18-year-old, who cost Ange Postecoglou £30m from Leeds United, will get the opportunity to run out in Govan when the two teams meet in the Europa League in December.

"The chance to play at Ibrox is a special thing and I can't wait for it.

"I have been to one (Old Firm) and it wasn't at Ibrox. They're brilliant games and I love them every single time. Even on TV they're just as good to watch."

Spurs are in a strong position to qualify for the next stage after three strong wins against Qarabag, Ferencvaros and AZ Alkmaar. They play Galatasaray on Thursday while Rangers travel to Greece to face Olympiacos.
