Jermain Defoe is enjoying his football with Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers it seems.
Jermain Defoe scored his seventh Premiership goal of the season for Rangers on Saturday.
Steven Gerrard’s side earned a comfortable 3-1 win at Hearts yesterday to delay Celtic’s title celebrations.
Defoe opened the scoring after 15 minutes and the veteran hitman really looks to be enjoying his football since coming into the first XI.
Alfredo Morelos’s four-game ban has allowed the 37-year-old striker an extended run in Gerrard’s first team, with Defoe also finding the net in a home visit of Hearts earlier this month.
Former Gers star Graham Roberts responded to the tweet, writing: “Well done Jermain.”
It’ll be interesting to see if Defoe can keep his spot up front for the light Blues, even when Morelos comes back.
The Colombian star, who has 29 goals this season, will return when the Premiership splits up and Gerrard really should continue with the former England international.
He has earned the right to keep the number nine shirt and if Gerrard wants to send a good message, he won’t bring Morelos back at the first possible opportunity.
