Rangers announce Fabio Cardoso signing

Rangers have announced the signing of Vitoria de Setubal defender Fabio Cardoso on a three-year contract.

Boss Pedro Caixinha is making sweeping changes to his first-team squad at Ibrox, and he has followed the signing of Bruno Alves with the arrival of compatriot Cardoso.

The 23-year-old had been linked with a transfer to Wolverhampton Wanderers, who also have strong Portuguese connections, but he has made the decision to move to the Glasgow giants for an undisclosed fee.

Cardoso makes the switch to Rangers having spent just a year with Setubal, despite penning a four-year contract last summer.

He made a total of 23 appearances in Portugal's top flight last season as his side finished in 12th position.
