"Osimhen - he just scores goals. He is a joke, he’s so, so good. I will say Victor.

On what he thinks of his goal music, he responded "Amazing. The first time I heard it, I was like ‘Wow’. I want to score every week now so that I can hear it."

The former Rangers player said his favourite meal is not cereal. "I don’t eat cereal - for breakfast, I have eggs and toast. But I would say growing up it was always Frosties.

"It is kind of similar to the Scottish Prem. I wouldn’t say there is a massive difference."
