Debut Jiangsu Suning goal for former Chelsea midfielder Ramires

Ramires has scored on his debut for Chinese club Jiangsu Suning.

The Brazilian midfielder, who joined the Chinese Super League outfit from Chelsea in a £25million deal last month, fired home a volley in his first outing in a Jiangsu shirt on Wednesday.

While the Blues were fighting out a 0-0 draw with Watford at Vicarage Road, Ramires was hitting the back of the net with a nice side-footed effort from a right-wing cross in a 2-0 friendly win over Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala.

Jiangsu are preparing for the new CSL season with Ramires in tow and will be hoping the 28-year-old delivers more of the same as the 2015 Chinese FA Cup winners chase an elusive league title.
