Graham Roberts is delighted to hear the news about Rangers striker Jermain Defoe, according to his post on Twitter.
Rangers have announced on their official website this afternoon that Defoe has signed a new contract with the club.
The former Tottenham Hotspur striker has signed a new one-year contract with Rangers and will have a player-coach role.
Former Spurs and Rangers star Roberts is delighted to hear the news about Defoe, as shown below.
Defoe is 38 now, and it is clear that the former Spurs striker is coming to the end of his career.
It does make sense for the former West Ham United star to take a player-coach role at Rangers.
Defoe is a very good striker who can still help out the team from time to time on the pitch.
The Englishman will also be beneficial to the younger players at the club.
Defoe will be able to teach the strikers the fine art of goalscoring.
The striker is also a model professional.
After all, you will not be to find too many footballers playing professionally at the age of 38 in a top league.
