James Tavernier has enjoyed a fine season for Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers.
Chris Sutton has told BT Sport that he believes James Tavernier is Glasgow Rangers’ best player.
Tavernier played his part in what was a remarkable game at Easter Road today, as Rangers and Hibernian drew 5-5.
The right-back scored Rangers’ first goal in the contest, to spark a recovery from 3-0 down.
And Sutton was effusive in his praise for the full-back during the contest, labelling him as the Ibrox side’s best player.
“I think he’s Rangers’ best player,” he said.
Sutton’s comments rather hammer home how big a loss Tavernier could be for Rangers, if he does move on.
The Daily Mirror suggest that the Rangers man could leave Glasgow this summer, to return to England.
There are a clutch of clubs from south of the border, who are chasing the Rangers man ahead of the summer transfer window.
Tavernier has played 46 games for Rangers this season, scoring nine goals in the process.
If Rangers do sell Tavernier, they are likely to get a sizeable fee for the defender, which could be re-invested into Steven Gerrard’s squad for next season.
