Barry Ferguson paid tribute to James Tavernier as the Rangers captain gets set to make his 500th appearance for the club on Saturday.
The 33-year-old right-back has been a key figure at the Govan club since signing from Wigan in 2015 and his landmark game will come against Motherwell in the William Hill Premiership at Ibrox.
Former Gers skipper Ferguson, who was installed as interim boss earlier in the week after the sacking of Philippe Clement, knows more than most what it takes to lead the Light Blues.A boyhood Gers fan who came through the youth ranks, Ferguson played in midfield for Rangers between 1997-2003 and 2005-2009.
“First and foremost it is an unbelievable achievement,” said Ferguson, who revealed Leon Balogun, Oscar Cortes, Dujon Sterling and John Souttar had all returned to training.
“He’s been through a lot in his Rangers career, but one thing about James Tavernier is that he never hides. He always puts himself out there to play.
