After the somewhat disappointing outing against Olympiacos, the Ibrox klanbase will no doubt be reassured by another stunning acquisition.
I’m sure that Senhor Danilo Pereira da Silva will be a huge success.
Life goes on, and second best never stops.
As one South American martinet leaves, another arrives.
I’m rather shocked that no club has snapped up this hard-working footballer.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if back-channel communications had already started to explore a return of El Gordito to the stadium that Mr Bomber played for?
Now, that’s a scenario far too contrived for a novel.
However, we currently have Brendan Rodgers being quietly delighted with the recruitment operation at Celtic, which is being masterminded by a chap called Lawwell!
For the avoidance of doubt, I have complete confidence in the highly experienced Mr Beale to get the very best out of the Brazilian forward.
The BBC report is running with “undisclosed fee”.
Fair enough, that’s in keeping with Operation Soothe guidelines.
Meanwhile, in another part of the Fitba multiverse, it has already been reported that the Rotterdam club received €2.75m from Sevco.
That rises to 3.25m Euros with some optimistic add-ons.
I’m told that the Brazilian was highly sociable in the extended Feyenoord family and that his absence will be felt.
It will be for Mr Beale to utilise the best bits of him in the new campaign.

Maybe RIFC will copy the desperate measure applied by Rangers FC before it
bit the dust – and change its yearend date from 30/06 to 31/12 ?
A one time delay of bad – audited – news, by 6 months.
If Danilo doesn’t hit the ground running,
a bit like Erling Haaland at Man City last year perhaps,
then the bears will not be happy. At all.
It’s one thing having the SMSM copy/pasters promoting all Beale’s
signings as pure, dead brilliant…
but they’re being set up to fail hyped-up, unrealistic expectations.
The wheels will have come off the bogey totally, if they do bring El Buffalo back!
But anything’s possible at the Ibrox asylum. 🙂
Right now it’s the pre-season cup and sevco ALWAZE win that. It’s when the actual football starts that it all starts to unravel.
Beale must hit the ground running. CL group participation, beat Celtic in the first league clash.
Failure in one will be bad enough, particularly losing out on CL monies, failure in both will be a test of Mikey’s resolve in the face of a mutinous fan base.
