Glasgow Rangers have announced that Kyle Lafferty has returned to Ibrox, and Stuart Dallas sent him a message on Twitter.
A number of Rangers fans have taken to Twitter to respond to Stuart Dallas after the Leeds winger sent Kyle Lafferty a message following the striker’s move to Ibrox.
Lafferty became the Gers’ latest signing after penning a two-year deal with the club that he left six years ago after making over 100 league appearances and scoring 31 goals.
It is an exciting deal for Steven Gerrard’s men. Signing a new striker had to be a priority with Alfredo Morelos and Umar Sadiq the only senior options available to the Englishman, and Lafferty went into this season off the back of a 19-goal campaign with Hearts.
He also opened his account for this term with a stunning winner against Celtic and will now be hoping to help Rangers put a genuine title challenge together seven years after he helped the club lift their most recent top flight trophy.
And following the announcement, Lafferty was sent a message from Leeds ace and Northern Ireland teammate Stuart Dallas, who is also a Rangers fan.
Dallas expressed his delight for Lafferty on Twitter, and the message was met by a number of Rangers fans suggesting that they hope that he follows the striker to Ibrox in the future.
Here is what Dallas tweeted, as well as some of the responses…
Dallas is currently sidelined with injury, but it would be a huge surprise if Marcelo Bielsa had any interest in letting the winger go. Bielsa is notorious for preferring to work with a smaller squad, so the wide-man’s versatility and unquestionable work-rate makes it seem highly unlikely that he would be allowed to leave if any club did make a late move.
