Tavernier might win an improbable Triple Crown to cap off his ninth season at Ibrox.
James Tavernier has become a Rangers icon, according to Alan Hutton, who also called the captain the best signing the Ibrox has made in recent memory.
For a steal of £220k, Tavernier, 32, came to the Gers from Wigan in 2015. The right-back’s transfer to Glasgow has turned out to be a daylight theft after nearly 450 games and an incredible 120 goals. Hutton believes the all-time great at Rangers should be the goalscoring wonder who was inducted into the Ibrox Hall of Fame last year.
As Philippe Clement’s team attempts an unexpected Triple Crown, Tavernier has already scored 19 goals this season. When the defender won the Viaplay Cup in December, he finished his personal hat trick of Scottish trophies, but in May, the fan favorite has a chance to win three more domestic titles.
He told Football Insider: “I think Tavernier has to be a Rangers legend for me. When you see the money that his move from Wigan cost – it was next to nothing.
According to him, Tavernier must be a Rangers icon, he told Football Insider. It was almost nothing when you consider how much money his move from Wigan cost.
Through thick and thin, he has been there. Tavernier joined them in the lower divisions and eventually rose to the top. His goals and assists are a result of his strength and infrequent injuries.
“I believe you have to put him in that bracket now that he has won all of the domestic trophies.” His goals this season and his brace against St Johnstone demonstrate what a fantastic acquisition for Rangers it has been.
Nobody has ever achieved such value for money in their modern history as he has. Over the years, he has received a lot of criticism, but he never backs down. It reveals to you the kind of guy he is.
