Kemar Roofe has claimed that there are ‘Rangers fans everywhere’ after an encounter whilst away on international duty in Austin, Texas.
Roofe, who was eligible for both England and Jamaica, chose the latter earlier this year, citing his dream to play at a World Cup.
However, the Reggae Boyz now have a mountain to climb if they are to make Qatar 2022.
That’s as, when Roofe earned just his second cap earlier this week against the USA, his side slipped to their third defeat in their first four qualifying fixtures.
With just one point to their name so far, they sit bottom of the eight-team CONCACAF group, with only three sides guaranteed to qualify for next year’s tournament.
It wasn’t all doom and gloom for Roofe in Austin, though, as he showed on his Instagram story on Friday.
The 28-year-old reshared a post from a Bear whose retro Rangers top he signed either during the warm-up or after the fixture.
The supporter raved about the forward for taking the time to come over to him and Roofe captioned his story ‘Rangers fans everywhere’, along with raised hands and blue heart emojis.
During his first trip away on international duty in September, Roofe was only involved in one of the three fixtures, but another post to his Instagram story on Friday showed him flying to Jamaica ahead of another qualifier against Canada on Sunday.
A third fixture against Honduras is set to follow on Thursday, but Roofe is likely to have already been released back to Rangers by that point, given that there’s a top-of-the-table Premiership clash against Hearts just two days later.
In other news, a big claim has been made about Steven Gerrard amid speculation linking him with Newcastle.
