Motherwell chief executive Alan Burrows says every Scottish club should want Rangers to progress to the Champions League group stages - including Celtic.
The Hoops are already at that stage after winning the Premiership title last season but could be joined by their Glasgow rivals if they overcome PSV in their play-off second leg midweek. Celtic have benefitted from a rising coefficient tally, largely bolstered by Rangers' run to the Europa League final in May.
Burrows meanwhile will see his beloved Steelmen profit from UEFA 'handouts', alongside other Premiership clubs. Speaking to the Sunday Mail, he believed progression for Giovanni van Bronckhorst's would be beneficial for all: “None of the other Premiership clubs can budget for participating in the Champions League but the UEFA handouts to the rest of the league will make a huge difference. “Running costs are rising daily so there’s never been a better reason for everyone to support the Scottish clubs in Europe. This is the first time since 2017, when Brendan Rodgers was in charge of Celtic, that we’ve had one club – never mind two – in the group stage.
