So far the Senegal international attacker never featured for the Seagulls and previously endured an injury-hit loan spells at Stoke City and then Angers.

Sima has though enjoyed success at Ibrox and his two goals last Saturday against Hibernian made it nine goals in 16 outings for Rangers.

Brighton had high hopes for Sima after he agreed his season long loan to the Glasgow giant and so far he has not disappointed.

Sima was brought in by the previous Gers boss Michael Beale – who was sacked earlier this month – but has now made an instant impact on the new man at the helm, Philippe Clement.

“I’m just happy to be here and to score goals and enjoy every minute of being at Rangers," Sima said to the Scottish Sun.

Fans at Ibrox are now hoping the club can turn his loan into a permanent move but it appears his temporary deal was agreed with no option to buy.

Sima is contracted with the Seaguls until June 2025 and the club will be tracking his progress carefully but delighted he is finally showing his potential after a slow start.
