The development, reported on Wednesday, indicates that Rangers scouts have been monitoring the Nigeria international closely, with the left-back emerging as a key defensive target in what is expected to be a competitive summer rebuild.

Sanusi, who plays for FC Porto, has recently regained prominence at the Portuguese club following a spell disrupted by injury setbacks. His return to consistent form has reportedly impressed Rangers’ recruitment team, who are keen to bolster their defensive options.

The Rangers Sanusi transfer move comes as the Scottish giants look to add depth and quality to their back line, with the Nigeria international now believed to be ahead of Francisco Moura in Porto’s left-back hierarchy.

The 27-year-old has contributed one goal and two assists this season for the Portuguese champions, further boosting his profile ahead of a potential move abroad.

Although no formal offer has been confirmed, reports suggest Rangers are closely assessing the player as part of their wider recruitment strategy for the summer window.
