The 27-year-old’s 29 goals in European competition for Rangers is a club record. During his time at Rangers, the forward won the Premiership once and collected a Scottish Cup winner’s medal, as well as reaching the Europa League final.

Santos are currently 17th in Brazil’s Serie A after 22 games. The club last won the national title in 2004.
