Rangers could be set for a European boost as FC Midtjylland could be set to sell star striker Paul Onuachu.
The powerful Nigerian forward is very much the focal point of the Midtjylland side and hit 17 goals in the Danish Superliga last season.
Various reports, including this one from voetbalnieuws.be, claims that Belgian trio Genk, Club Brugge and Anderlecht are interested in the player.

African football news outlet Brila claims that Anderlecht have already submitted a $5m bid for the 25-year-old striker.
Rangers will face FC Midtjylland in the Europa League Qualifying Round three if they can beat off the challenge of Progres Niederkorn next week.
Despite numerous sounds about getting revenge on the Luxembourg outfit [Sunday Post], Rangers only managed to eke out a 2-0 victory at Ibrox against the part-timers.
Taking the positives away from the result, it means the Glasgow club are completely in the driving seat next week with a Gers away goal all but killing off the tie.
But as Rangers learned the last time they played Progres, you can never say never when it comes to Europa League upsets.

That said, it’d take a monumental cock-up for Rangers to stumble next Thursday.
And should we get through to next round, Danish outfit Midtjylland will be made considerably weaker by the potential sale of star frontman Paul Onuachu.
