Dundee boss Steven Pressley expects more interest in Luke Graham this summer with fellow Premiership side Rangers reportedly closing in on a deal for the centre-back.
The 22-year-old has come through the ranks at Dundee and, after spending last season on loan at Falkirk and helping them secure promotion to the top flight, has become a mainstay in Pressley's first team.
The defender's 201 clearances and 38 interceptions this term are among the highest in the division. He's also scored two goals and set up one.
Pressley admits the club rejected a sizeable offer for Graham, who has a year left in his deal, in the January window but the defender is reportedly closing in on a move to Rangers.
"We received a substantial offer for him in January and the club turned that down," Pressley told Sky Sports.
"Since then his form has been terrific, he's got better and better. He's a credit to himself and his family the way he's conducted himself through all of this speculation.
"Am I surprised by the speculation? Absolutely not. We've received no further offers. Do I expect us to receive them in the summer? Probably, based on his form. The club will only sell Luke if we receive the finance we feel he's worth.
"He's a great talent who I think can go on and play right at the very top. A player like Luke Graham probably, in his own mind, wants to play at a top club. A club in the English Premier League, that's his ambition. At Dundee we can't provide that ambition.
"The most important thing for us is the player and we should be proud around his progression and we should want a young player like him to play, eventually, at the very top."
