Rangers Target Title Send-Off for Departing Captain James Tavernier

Danny Röhl says the team will channel his decision into focus for the five post-split games.

Overview

  • Tavernier, who disclosed on Wednesday he will leave at season’s end, has 144 goals in 562 games across 11 years.
  • Röhl called the right-back a club legend and set a title as the ideal farewell with Rangers one point behind Hearts and five matches left.
  • Röhl said Tuur Rommens and Ryan Naderi will miss Motherwell on Sunday but could return for the final four fixtures.
  • Reaction focused on timing and process, with Andy Walker calling the announcement "really bizarre" and reports noting he had not been offered a new deal.
  • Debate over his legacy sharpened as Callum McGregor stressed trophies as the measure of judgment and analysts praised Tavernier’s prolific scoring but noted a modest medal haul.
