Newcastle United midfielder Alan Smith is wanted by incoming Rangers boss Ally McCoist.
The People says injured midfielder Smith could be poised for a dream move to Rangers.
Incoming Ibrox boss Ally McCoist - who replaces Walter Smith in the Gers hotseat this summer - wants to make the former Leeds man one of his first signings.
Smith, 30, became a Rangers fan in 1992 after watching McCoist, Mark Hateley and Co edge past his beloved Leeds United in the Champions League.
Smith will be allowed to leave following the emergence of Cheik Tiote.
