Rangers have confirmed the signing of Portuguese attacker Daniel Candeias from Benfica, and fans on Twitter have given their stamp of approval.
The Scottish club announced on their official club Twitter account on Sunday afternoon that the 29-year-old winger had put pen-to-paper on a two-year deal at Ibrox.

Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha has wasted little time following the end of a disappointing 2016-17 campaign by making wholesale changes to his first-team squad, with four confirmed additions already through the door.
Candeias follows fellow Portuguese new arrivals Bruno Alves, Dalcio and Fabio Cardoso, while Rangers also landed the signature of midfielder Ryan Jack from Scottish rivals Aberdeen.
But with their summer spending likely to continue over the coming weeks, Rangers fans have delivered their verdicts on their latest new addition.

However, despite the large influx of new arrivals at Ibrox over the last fortnight, Rangers are not likely to be finished with their summer spending.
The Daily Record have claimed that Mexican international duo Carlos Pena and Eduardo Herrera have both been granted work permits ahead of their moves to the club, which could be completed next week.
But their latest new arrival is set to join up with his new team-mates for training at Auchenhowie in the coming days, with Rangers’ preparations already well underway for the new season.
Candeias, a versatile winger who is adept on either flank, arrives from Benfica for whom he failed to make a single first-team appearance in his three-year spell.
He contributed four goals and four assists during a season-long loan at Turkish outfit Alanyaspor last season, after being discarded by the Portuguese giants.
