The signing of Jermain Defoe was a fantastic thing for Rangers supporters, but the player himself has kicked the hype into overdrive after a post from his personal Twitter account.

The veteran striker rolled back the years with a photo of him playing alongside Steven Gerrard for England, leaving no-one in any doubt that his intention is to win trophies with the famous Rangers.
As short-term signings go, Defoe is a fantastic one, especially at Scottish Premiership level. He is a player who could have the quality to fire us towards silverware despite now being 36 years of age.
Gerrard will obviously have had a lot to do with this latest signing, a clear sign that simply having the Liverpool icon in charge is attracting a better quality of player to the club.
Defoe is clearly looking forward to making his debut and contributing and no doubt fans will give him a massive reception.
These supporters responded to his initial message to supporters earlier this evening…
Welcome to Ibrox Mr Defoe. “Lets Go”.????????❤????????

Welcome to Rangers, Jermaine Defoe. Here’s hoping that you have a fantastic time up here in Scotland for Rangers and that you score as many goals as possible. A trophy or two would be most appreciated. All the best, Jermaine!
