Alan Hutton insists Rangers can’t afford to lose James Tavernier this summer.
The Gers captain appeared to be on his way out of Ibrox earlier in the window as Trabzonspor chased his signature. Philippe Clement had already shipped out leaders John Lundstram, Ryan Jack and Connor Goldson and Tavernier looked poised to become the latest casualty of the ruthless clearout.But the goalscoring right-back – now in his testimonial season in Govan – remains on the books with less than two days of the transfer window remaining. And former Light Blues full-back Hutton hopes to see the skipper lead his teammates out at Celtic Park on Sunday.He said: “When you look at all the experience Rangers have lost, to then lose Tavernier too, they’d be losing a lot. When you look at the goals, assists and everything else he brings the team, him not being there could be a huge blow.
