EXCLUSSIVE: Lee McCulloch moots Ibrox Hall of Fame place for ‘unbelievable’ James Tavernier

Rangers ace wows BBC pundit amid 'non-negotiable' transfer situation

Rangers ace James Tavernier merits a spot in the club’s Hall of Fame, according to Lee McCulloch.

The pundit says there is no question regarding the Ibrox skipper and such a role considering his “unbelievable” services to the club.

The 32-year-old has made 449 appearances for the Scottish club, scoring 122 goals along the road

“There’s no debate for me at all, anyway,” stated McCulloch, as reported the Daily Record. “Just no debate. No argument whatsoever. Look at the goals he’s scored, the games he’s played — over 300 games.

To my knowledge the Hall of Fame, you get invited into it for your services to the club. I think James’ efforts to the club have been remarkable. A lot of people go on about his goals, which they should.

“But they are also quick to point out that it’s the other side of his game which is…whatever. I think he’s been an excellent servant for the club. I think he thoroughly deserves to have a position in the Hall of Fame. That’s where it stops for me.”

James Tavernier showing no signs of slowing down at Rangers

Tavernier genuinely has been fantastic at the Ibrox giants, with the right-back sticking with the club through thick and thin throughout the years.

He has been immensely influential both on and off the pitch, playing brightly in defence and attack and helping young players emerge through the ranks.

And the defender has proven his worth once again this season, with Tavernier already boasting 21 goals and 10 assists as he approaches his 50th appearance in all competitions.

Rangers boss Philippe Clement, fans of the club and indeed Tavernier’s colleagues are all fully aware of just how vital he is and has been over the seasons, with an Ibrox Hall of Fame position likely headed his way in the near future.
