Brandon Barker channels Steven Gerrard as Rangers signing post delights fans

Brandon Barker took little time to ingratiate himself with the Rangers support after finalising his move to Ibrox from Manchester City on Friday.

The 22-year-old became Steven Gerrard 's ninth summer signing on a three-year deal - adding another dimension to the attacking options at Gerrard's disposal.

Barker knows all about Scottish football having spent a season on loan at Hibs two years ago. And he revealed earlier how it was a "dream" to run out in front of the Ibrox crowd.

Now he's further endeared himself to the Light Blues' loyal by taking to Twitter and channeling his inner Gerrard with the boss' now iconic catchphrase.

He beamed: "Absolutely buzzing. Let's Go!"

Barker's post predictably brought a gushing response from the Rangers support - gathering more than 2000 likes and scores of replies in half an hour.

@likkleciteh beamed: "From the Champions of England to the Famous Glasgow Rangers. Stuff that dreams are made of lad

@jackfrankwitts said: "Welcome, Brandon. Looking forward to you causing absolute havoc."

And @dalealbertz added: "Welcome to Rangers mate, get the head down, give it 100% and see where it takes you."
