Youssef Chermiti scored his first goal for Rangers at the weekend but his celebration has been met with a mixed reaction.

The 21-year-old got off the mark for his new club with a powerful strike to seal a 3-1 win against Kilmarnock at Ibrox. It was his first goal in three seasons after a disappointing two years at Everton in which he failed to score.

Pressure was growing on him north of the border after he failed to score in his first eight appearances following his £8m move. With the season having already descended into crisis, that deal was a focal point for frustration with the current regime, which includes Kevin Thelwell - the director of football who left Everton at the end of last season. Thelwell had brought Chermiti to Merseyside from Sporting.
