Rangers target Jens Hjerto-Dahl insisted he's taking the transfer speculation one day at a time after his own fans begged him to stay at Tromso.

The Norwegian talent has been strongly linked with a move to both Rangers and Cardiff City and scored at the weekend as the league leaders eased to a 4-1 win at Ham-Kam.

And Hjerto-Dahl insisted the speculation is not having any impact on his game.

He said: "I don't know what to say about the transfers.

"The way we work here is that I come to training every day and enjoy it. Then I get good support from my teammates.

"When the whistle blows, my head can't be anywhere else. Then that will only lead to poor performances.

"After the match, I spoke to our fans.

"They asked me to stay and ask if it was the last game.

"I can't bear to answer that. I'm taking it day by day and week by week.

"It was nice to score another goal from a situation I practice often in training.

"I acted on instinct, which was to curl it.

"After training, I practice this with the strikers and midfielders, although it doesn't always go as well as that!

"We are playing very well at the moment and we have gained strength during the World Cup break."

And Tromso boss Jorgen Vik has praised Hjerto-Dahl for ignoring the background noise and focusing on football.

He said: "He is strong.

"He is a role model for many of our fans. He lives in the present and is very invested in Tromso Sports Club."
