Rangers’ Portuguese revolution continues with signing of defender Fabio Cardoso
The centre-back has signed from Vitoria Setubal and follows compatriots Bruno Alves and Dalcio to Ibrox.
Rangers have completed the signing of Portuguese defender Fabio Cardoso on a three–year deal.
The 23-year-old centre-back has signed from Vitoria Setubal to become the third Portuguese player to join Rangers this summer following Bruno Alves and Dalcio.
The former Portugal Under-20 and Benfica B player joined Setubal last summer and made 23 appearances.
Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha told the club’s official website: “He is a player who everyone describes as having big potential to be one of the centre-halves of the future with the Portuguese national team.
“We believe in him and he can perform on the right or on the left which is good in a centre-half.
“Fabio is 23 so having an experienced player around like Bruno Alves is good, he is a player whose one main characteristic is leadership so Fabio will feel comfortable and grow and learn from him.”
