Rangers have done incredibly well to offer contracts to senior players this summer.
The likes of Connor Goldson, Steven Davis and Allan McGregor have all penned a new deal at the club, but this news will delight all the Gers fans.
Tavernier move to Rangers from Wigan Athletic in 2015 and he has grown into a top-quality right-back at the club. In fact, he has become a club icon, after managing an incredible 85 goals from 353 appearances for the Light Blues.
He became the permanent skipper at the club under Steven Gerrard and guided the Bears to the historic 55th Premiership title two seasons ago.
The defender was outstanding last season as well and came very close to winning the Europa League silverware in Seville.
The 30-year-old remains one of the key players for Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s squad and he can look to end his career at this iconic club.
