Rangers winger Sheyi Ojo is in fine form.

Sheyi Ojo of Rangers celebrates scoring his teams second goal during the Europa League Second Qualifying round first leg match between Rangers and Progres Niederkorn at Ibrox Stadium on...

Sheyi Ojo had one of the best games of his career last night as Rangers beat Midtjylland.

Ojo scored one goal and provided two assists, and now has five goals and six assists for the season.

And it’s only just mid-August.

Ojo has settled at Rangers instantly, and is making up for lost time at his previous loan spell in France.

Already he is justifying Rangers’ decision to sell Daniel Candeias.

Rangers sold the Portuguese winger for just £250,000 last month.

Daniel Candeias is seen in action during the pre season friendly match between Rangers and Oxford United  at Ibrox Stadium on July 07, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Candeias had a superb relationship with Rangers star striker Alfredo Morelos.

There was a fear the Colombian striker could be marginally less effective without Candeias.

Ojo has answered this emphatically with his early season form.

He has struck up a partnership with Morelos, providing assists for both of his goals last night.

Ojo needs to keep up his form to make Rangers’ decision the right one, but the early signs are great.
