Sunderland boss Roy Keane is eyeing Rangers defender Carlos Cuellar.
But Keane faces competition for the former Osasuna man, with Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan known to regard the 26-year-old highly.
Cuellar has been in discussions with Rangers over signing a new contract and those close to him have insisted that he is willing to commit his long-term future to Ibrox.
But there remains a feeling in Glasgow that if the club's valuation is met during the course of the summer the Gers would seriously consider selling.
