Glasgow Rangers defender Bruno Alves could leave the Ibrox club in January. Celtic fans react to the report on Twitter.

Bruno Alves of Rangers arrives at the stadium prior to the Scottish Premier League match between Celtic and Ranger at Celtic Park on December 30, 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.

According to reports from the Daily Record, Rangers defender Bruno Alves could leave the club in the January transfer window.

The Portugal international, signed by ex-manager Pedro Caixinha, joined the Ibrox club in the summer. The 36-year-old was brought with the intention of bringing leadership to the side, and acting as a mentor for the young players.

However, Alves has fallen out of favour under Graeme Murty, and could leave the Gers this month. He was last seen limping out of Rangers’ 0-0 draw against Celtic in the Scottish Premiership, and it could be his last appearance for the Glasgow club.

According to reports from Sky Italia, Rangers are in talks with Serie A strugglers Benevento, with reports emerging that a deal has been in place already, and only personal terms are left to be agreed.
