Rangers are today delighted to announce club captain James Tavernier has signed a new, improved contract, keeping him at Ibrox until the summer of 2022.

He'll not be here until 2022

This is hopefully so we get a decent deal for him in the summer 

[Marky. 6,946]

A few positives. His base value now rises for example, but I do believe it hasn't been too long since his last new deal.

Still, he is a quality player who, with a few tweaks, will prove to be even more crucial.

[Deanzmeanzheinz 4,312]

Win win - he either stays for the next 4 or we get a good fee.

Sack the Board! 

[TopCat 4,511]

Great move by the club.... protecting one of our prize our assets.

[bluenose244 2,618]

Good news,

Has his faults but like it or he's one of our best players, easily one of the best full backs in the country - if he could match his defensive work with the rest of his game he'd be the complete full back in my opinion (wouldn't be playing in Scotland though).

[1690tamRFC 5,001]

Pleased with that. 

[coopsleftboot 5,512]

Och, takes me back to those heady summer days when we improved the deals for McGregor, Davis, Naismith, Whittaker et al.  

[GOAT 30,449]

Has he no just signed a new deal?

Aye but him and Morelos get new contracts every 3 months

Same as Morelos, improved terms and length of contract adds value to their fee should they be sold this Summer (which hopefully they're not!)

... and if we've been rejecting offers for them then we have to be fair with them and pay them accordingly. Quite rightly.

Yep good point. 

[Smile 26,610]

Whatever happened to rewarding new contracts when the players getting them have achieved something, I do get that this makes our position stronger when we punt these players.

[islandblue 366]

Great news. If he does go now it will be for a proper fee

[GlasgowRangers1983 461]

Smart bit of business ?

[the cry was no 3,035]

My guess is that we will have inserted release clauses at decent fees in return for an extra 5 to 10k pw for both Tav and Morelos.

WBA offered 1.8m for Tav on deadline day. At least now we can say it's 6m or whatever and pay that or piss off.

Logic then dictates that if you value them at that level you pay them accordingly and everyone is happy. SG said this himself re Alfie

Great business this imo

[laudrupno1 3,932]

Good stuff. 

[siddiqi_drinker 14,635]

Smart move, he's only 26 so if potential suitors come knocking they better have their cheque books ready.

Normally it’s players agents that request/demand release clauses in contracts, it doesn’t benefit the clubs. 

We did tell WBA to do one, we didn’t need to sign Tav on an improved contract for that to happen. It will help us get a better fee if we wanted to sell him, especially in the last 12-18 months  but I think the fee is dictated more by the performance of the player.

Why would we want to have release clauses? Literally nothing to gain.

[the cry was no 3,035]

Of course a release cause can benefit a club

So Alfredo's on say 15k pw and prem team x say we'll give you 60k pw 

They offer us £2m and we say no and we have a seriously unhappy player who has stated he wants to play in the Premiership

Get an agreement in place now that he can go (he wants to) but they must pay £10m and in return he can have a few grand more from us now

Everyone wins

[Bears r us 30,822]

I hope he starts practicing corners after his efforts on Sat, or maybe get someone else to take them.

Then you only get $10m when he could be worth $15m or more. 

In any case, they don’t get to agree personal terms until a fee is agreed between clubs, so in your example - a $2m offer doesn’t get anywhere and no wage would be negotiated. If it worked like that the whole system collapses.
