Rangers told the 2 players they can build team around as Clement urged to avoid Beale’s big transfer mistake.
Kenny Miller has told Rangers that they should build their team around Jack Butland AND James Tavernier.
Philippe Clement has recently revealed that all his top team stars have a price if interested parties come to the table – with his Ibrox No1 handed a whopping £30million tag. It’s been yet another summer of transition in Govan with the likes of Ryan Jack, john Borna Barisic Kemar Roofe and Jon McLaughlin all departing on frees after the expiry of contracts. Skipper Tavernier and Connor Goldson have been linked with a reunion in Saudi while Scott Wright, Cyriel Dessers and Todd Cantwell are amongst a group of players who have been linked with moves elsewhere.
Rangers have added Connor Barron, Jefte, Clinton Nsiala, Hamza Igamane and Liam Kelly so far with further reinforcements expected although the Belgian boss has conceded he will need to sell in order to fund his rebuild. Miller has stressed how vital it is that his old club don’t repeat the mistakes of last season under Michael Beale in the market as they bid to overhaul Celtic and Brendan Rodgers while he has named Butland and Tavernier as the TWO players he would love to see remain come the close of the window.
“Winning the League Cup was a positive start to Philippe’s reign, because it came in the first eight weeks since he’d been through the door. It was a positive start, and they then got themselves in a strong position to compete for the league title.
“Losing the cup final is never nice – it’s the last game of the season and one that you’re going to remember the most. The fact that it was an Old Firm final makes it even tougher to take. Now they’re looking at a big summer rebuild and big summer recruitment. There were a lot of mistakes made last summer – they can’t make the same mistakes this summer.
