Popular Post esquire8 43,703 Posted August 17, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2022 RANGERS captain James Tavernier has today signed an extension to his current long-term deal at Ibrox. The skipper, who joined the club in the Championship in 2015, has gone onto make 353 appearances to date, and has an incredible 85 goals to his name from right-back. Tavernier is the last remaining player from the club’s days in the lower divisions of Scottish football, and he amassed Championship and Petrofac Cup winners’ medals from those days. After two years in the top flight, Tavernier was named as permanent captain of the club in the summer of 2018 under Steven Gerrard. It was he who became the iconic captain to lift title number 55 in 2021, while he also added the Scottish Cup to his collection last season. He is one of just four Rangers captains to lead his team into a European final with Gers having beaten all the odds to play in the Europa League final in Seville in May. He has now committed to a new deal which will take him well into his thirties as a Ranger. Speaking after signing his new deal, Tavernier said: "I just want to spend more years here and have that security. "It is such a great place to play football and I can’t wait to see what the coming years have to bring. "I am settled here, my family are settled here, so it was a no-brainer to get the contact extension over the line."

JackAlex93 11,666 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 It's hard to think of a better value for money signing in terms of what he's contributed to the club. Rangers legend. Malkytfp1, GA1972 and Negri's lovechild 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersInCanada 7,775 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I wonder if the unconfirmed amount of the extension is not just down to the contract itself. I am thinking that it may be 1 year with the option of a further year if that is agreed, at that time, by both parties. Just a guess. I have no inside knowledge.

LaaRFC 4,863 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Will reach 100 goals for us which is ridiculous. Just needs a few more trophies under his belt to absolutely cement his legendary status. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you've just said in a few words what Rangers could say in a few words. It's not a controversial deal if so. Just seems bizarre to put it out there but not say what it actually is.

Moody Blue 9,564 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 He’s had his poor moments but for the money paid, the number of games he plays, all before his numbers, then he’s been one of the best signings in the last 20years. Remarkable return really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
