Despite being tipped to break into the first team last season, Sangare failed to get any gametime for Rafa Benitez’s first team, which fuelled talk of a move to Scotland.
Rangers famously took the “Newcastle Five” on loan in January 2015 as Gael Bigirimana, Shane Ferguson, Kevin Mbabu, Remie Streete and Haris Vuckic all signed short-term deals.
But Sangare moved to quash any speculation, insisting that the shirt was for his little brother, adding: “Nothing has changed.”
Gers boss Steven Gerrard is looking to strengthen his side, and could secure the signing of Jon Flanagan this week.
