Lisbon, Portugal (My Sportsbook) - Portuguese defender Antonio Tonel has welcomed reports of a possible January move to Rangers. The 28-year-old Sporting Lisbon defender is rumored to be on Gers boss Walter Smith's new year shopping list. "Sporting Lisbon are a big club and I am very happy here, but Rangers are massive," Tonel told the Evening Times. "I know they have been out to see me on a couple of occasions and have been following me for over a year. That is very flattering for any player. "I have played against Rangers at Ibrox with both Maritimo and then Sporting Lisbon last year in the UEFA Cup and it was an amazing experience." (Courtesy of sportbox.tv)
