Rangers Transfers: 9 New Signings Fans Should Be Excited For

6. Daniel Candeias

Young players like Dálcio and Cardoso lack experience, which explains why Pedro Caixinha was so eager to land 29-year old Daniel Candeias. Unlike those aforementioned names, the winger has played for clubs in his homeland, Germany, Turkey and France, and that maturity could make him vital.

Again, Michael O'Halloran's 'run until you run out of pitch' mindset isn't cutting it at Ibrox. Older Gers fans are accustomed to smart wide players like Mark Walters, Brian Laudrup and Neil McCann, so fingers are crossed that Candeias will be a throwback to that kind of touchline hugging goodness.

Crosses are a huge part of the attacker's game too, so he should be popular amongst Rangers supporters. If Candeias can hurl balls into the box for big strikers like Herrera and others, then the blue half of Glasgow should have no trouble finding the net.

After years of seeing Ally McCoist and Mark Warburton play forwards like Waghorn and Kenny Miller out wide, it's good to see a Gers manager buying actual width.
