Bosingwa was released at the end of last season
after helping the Blues win a Champions League
and FA Cup double. And he could now be set to
cross the west London divide, with Rangers
interested in the ex-Portugal star.
Bosingwa joined Chelsea for around £16 million
four years ago and went on to win the Champions
League, Premier League, three FA Cups and the
Community Shield.
He had previously been part of Porto's 2004
Champions League squad.
Despite being so highly-decorated, the 29-year-
old came under fire for his defending throughout
his Stamford Bridge career and eventually
struggled to hold down a regular place in the
side.
He did manage to go out on a high, helping
successfully shackle Bayern Munich's Franck
Ribery in the Champions League final.
Otherwise, some of his better performances came
playing out of position, most notably at left-back
against Lionel Messi in the 2009 semi-final with
Barcelona and as an emergency centre-back in
this season's semi against the same opponents.
Inter Milan, Anzhi Makhachkala and Monaco have
all been linked with the defender but QPR may
now be in pole position to make him their eighth
summer signing.
