HEARTS IN MOUTHS
Back in September, when the Rangers website revealed the club “were thrilled to announce” the signing of a Portuguese striker from Everton for £8m, the reaction from fans could only have been more downbeat if the player in question had been Beto. On Reddit, one overwrought supporter described the deal to bring Youssef Chermiti to Ibrox as being “everything that is wrong with football”, noting that the 21-year-old had “rocked up” in Glasgow with nothing to show for his short time in the game except a £5,000 Van Cleef & Arpels bracelet and “teeth straight out of a designer dentist”. (At this point it is probably also worth noting that Football Daily has been knocking around since before Youssef was even a mischievous gleam in his father’s eye and has achieved so little that we’d never even heard of the high-end jewellers until we read the disparaging post in question.)
