James Tavernier, the Rangers captain, is the subject of intense transfer speculation, with a host of clubs vying for his signature.

Former Rangers manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst is keen on a reunion with Tavernier at Besiktas, and the Turkish club are preparing a formal bid according to HITC.

However, Rangers are reluctant to lose their influential captain but may be forced to consider offers due to financial constraints.

Besiktas are planning to rebuild the squad under their new manager following a disappointing season in the Super Lig.

The Black Eagles will not compete in European competition football this season and will be fully focused on domestic football as a result.

Trabzonspor, another Turkish club, have already made a bid for Tavernier, which has been rejected. They are expected to return with an improved offer, but they face stiff competition from several other clubs.

Interest in the Scottish right-back extends beyond Turkey, with Saudi Arabian clubs Al-Ettifaq and Al-Qadsiah expressing their desire to secure his services. Additionally, European clubs Monaco and Olympiakos are monitoring the situation closely.

Rangers manager Philippe Clement has previously hinted at potential player sales this summer, indicating that the club may be open to offers for Tavernier if the price is right.

With multiple clubs interested, the future of James Tavernier is uncertain.
