Rangers will accept '£10m' offer for star duo - expert

Rangers would “snap” the hands off clubs willing to pay “£10million” for defenders James Tavernier and Connor Goldson this summer.

Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, former Gers defender Alan Hutton discussed the potential exits of the experienced duo.

Football Insider revealed that the Scottish giants will accept significant offers for the pair this summer.

Rangers must sell before they can buy this summer, and Philippe Clement has made it clear that everyone is up for sale for the right fee.

Tavernier and Goldson have made a combined 769 appearances for the Gers, but sources have said Saudi Pro League clubs are heavily interested.

Rangers will struggle to sell Tavernier and Goldson due to their age

Even though both Tavernier and Goldson would provide a wealth of experience to a new club, their age will be a factor in any potential transfer.

“I even found out towards the later end of my career, when you start going over 30 your value goes down because there’s no sell-on after that,” Hutton told Football Insider.

“If you’re 31,32, 33, and you go and sign for a team after that, you’re close to retirement so you’re never really going to make that money back so it’s an interesting one.

“You look at the likes of Saudi where Steve Gerrard is and the rumours that are circulating around the two of them, could that be a possibility?

“If you could get somewhere, £8,9,10million for the both of them they’d obviously snap their hands off.

“They’ve been great servants for the club, but the ages that they’re at that’s the big problem for me.

“There’s no sell-on value for this deal.”
