Soccer: Danish star to stay and fight

Peter Lovenkrands has turned his back on a possible move to Inter Milan

Peter Lovenkrands has turned his back on a possible move to Inter Milan

because he wants to impress at Rangers instead.

The San Siro side are just one of a number of clubs who are interested

in the Ibrox striker after his three performances for the Danish Under-21

side.

But, although the youngster has found it difficult to break into the

first team and has been troubled by injury during his time at Rangers, he

insists he wants to stay at the Govan club and fight for his place in the

team.

His agent Ivan Benes said: ‘‘Inter have watched him play the last three

matches for the Danish Under-21s. He scored every time and was

outstanding.

‘‘A lot of other top European clubs, including Ajax and Borussia, have

also made enquiries about Peter.

‘‘I told Peter that Inter were interested but he told me he wanted to

stay at Rangers and show what he is capable of.

‘‘The chance of a move like that would make a lot of players go weak at

the knees but Peter loves it in Glasgow.

‘‘He thinks he can learn a lot from Dick Advocaat at Rangers and he is

confident he can score goals when he gets a run in the first team.’’
