Glasgow Rangers fans are eagerly awaiting news on a new manager arriving at Ibrox to replace the previous one.

However, an unrelated Rangers update on Saturday has nonetheless led to plenty of Bears cheering.

Rangers striker and Zambia international Fashion Sakala has made it two hat-tricks in the space of just a few weeks.

The Ibrox marksman bagged three goals against Motherwell on 31 October.

And on Saturday, Sakala netted another hat-trick as Zambia beat Mauritania 4-0 in their World Cup qualifier.

Leicester’s Patson Daka opened the scoring in the 34th minute, before Sakala netted three minutes later in Lusaka.

The Rangers forward then struck again on the stroke of half-time before getting his third just after the hour.

Sakala’s efforts helped his nation briefly move second in Group B, though Equatorial Guinea leapfrogged them with a 1-0 win over Tunisia.

Here is what some Rangers fans said about the 24-year-old Ibrox ace:

Zambia face Tunisia on Tuesday in their final Qatar 2022 qualifier.

Rangers are then back in action next Saturday as they face Hibernian in the Scottish League Cup semi-finals.
