James Tavernier could leave Rangers at the end of the season as his contract expires in June. The right-back has not yet made a decision on his future and a new deal has not been offered to him. Discussions regarding this will take place at the end of the season, but a short-term deal is a possibility. If Tavernier wants to play regularly, he could move to another league where he would be a starter. One scenario is that Tavernier could agree to a reduced wage and stay in a player-coach capacity. This would allow Rangers to sign a top-class right-back, with the captain helping him adapt to life in Scotland, on the understanding that he would be second or third choice. However, that would depend on the Englishman and his aspirations.
