    MIKAEL LUSTIG has celebrated joining Belgian club Gent – by aiming a cheeky dig at Rangers.

    The Celtic legend declared his relief that his new team’s blue shirts don’t match the shade of Gers’ kit.

    nd Sweden international Lustig revived memories of his notorious police hat antics – when he borrowed an officer’s cap to celebrate James Forrest’s goal in a 5-0 Old Firm win last year.

    Lustig, 32, ended a trophy-laden eight year spell with Hoops last month.

    The right-back told Belgian media he hopes to continue his successful run with Gent.

    Lustig said: “After eight years with Celtic it felt strange to be pulling on a blue shirt.

    Thankfully it isn’t the same shade of blue as the Rangers strip!

    “My police hat celebration was one of those crazy things you do on the spur of the moment.

    You don’t plan to do something like that beforehand – but it was very funny.

    “I hope to be popular with the Gent fans, but I can only achieve this through giving 100 per cent effort. I’m still hungry and in good shape.

    “I regularly do extra training on my own, and take care what I eat. The older you get the more you have to look after your body.

    “I have played for winning teams wherever I’ve been, and want to do the same in Belgium.

    “I don’t care who I am up against – even if it is someone like Neymar.

    “He is a fantastic player, but you have to try to get into their heads. It worked for me against him, as he picked up a yellow card and was subbed soon afterwards.

    “I was Celtic’s vice captain for the past five years, as I try to show some character when things are not going well.

    “I don’t need an armband to speak up if it’s needed.

    I didn’t know much about Gent when they first contacted me. I thought I might stay in Glasgow, or go back to Sweden.

    “But the more I learned about Gent the better they sounded.

    I discussed it with my wife, as we have daughters of eight and five. My family comes first – they are my team!

    “It was important that we found an international school where they would be happy. Without that I wouldn’t have signed.”

    I really hope he saw the message from the fans yesterday.

    Edit: I'm such a muppet sometimes. :giggle1:
