The 25-year-old is out of contract next month amid speculation in Sweden linking him with Ibrox

In-demand Oskar Fallenius has addressed a furious backlash from Djurgarden fans as he inches towards the exit - with Rangers named among the interested clubs. winger considers his options.

The 25-year-old was touted with a move to Ibrox last summer and the attacker will see his contract expire next month. Reports in Sweden suggest the Premiership giants could be set to revive their interest, while Wolfsburg are also said to be tracking the star.

Former Brondby wide man Fallenius has previously admitted he expects his Djurgarden to conclude at the end of the campaign, and left the door open to a switch to Ibrox.

Amid the transfer noise, Fallenius was booed by his own supporters as he warmed up for the clash with IFK Gothenburg before the international break - amid the contract standoff.

The irked wide man confirmed he reported the backlash to security, telling Aftonbladet: "There was harassment when I was warming up.

"I just wanted to show our security officers that it was not okay, and of course they agree. It was special, but I still think I was able to handle it quite well,

"Criticism is one thing and I can take that. It's part of playing for a big club. But the incident itself was something I couldn't tolerate. But we in the team have had a good dialogue so it's nothing that's weighing on me too much, but it was important that we brought it up."

The Djurgarden supporters group also released a statement - calling out rival fans who make players "question their future" at the club.

It read: "The stands are a place where great emotions belong. But it is our players who are at stake, and they have taken us to a table position that, to be honest, is better than anyone dared to hope for. We know that it affects the squad and that it makes players doubt their future here, and that is unacceptable."

Football director Maximilian Hahn was coy about the prospect of Fallenius penning a new deal - but did admit he expected interest in the forward.

He told Fotbollskanalen: "We're keeping it simple and I don't want to talk to the media about the contract situation. It's something between us and the players. I don't want to take about foreign interest.

"I don't expect anyone to leave, but I always expect there will be interest in our players."
