Rangers Legend James Tavernier Nears Move to Maccabi Tel Aviv
Maccabi Tel Aviv is on the verge of signing James Tavernier, a prominent figure from Scottish club Rangers, as a free agent, according to football transfer insider Fabrizio Romano. Tavernier, an English right-back, is expected to arrive in Israel for medical examinations.
Tavernier, 34, has been a symbol of Rangers for the past decade, serving as captain during his 11-year tenure. He concluded his contract with the club this summer. Former Maccabi Tel Aviv coach Kenny Miller lauded Tavernier as Rangers' most crucial player of the current era, highlighting his physical attributes, goal contributions, and strong character.
Tavernier began his career at Newcastle and had loan spells at various clubs before a permanent move to Wigan. He joined Rangers in 2014, where he became a key player. Last season, he scored 14 goals and provided six assists from his right-back position in the Scottish Premiership.
