Adam Devine outlines ultimate Rangers aim involving skipper James Tavernier as he eyes next chance

Adam Devine says that it's no secret that he wants to dislodge Rangers skipper James Tavernier in Michael Beale's starting XI.

The teenager has played in four of the side's last five matches at left-back with regular full-back Borna Barisic returning from World Cup duty and Turkish defender Ridvan Yilmaz still out injured. Devine has grabbed the opportunity with both hands, but has had to settle for a place on the bench in the last two matches with fiest-choice Barisic now back from Qatar.

The young Rangers defender replaced Tavernier for the last 25 minutes in the 3-0 win over Motherwell on December 28th, and then was an unused substitute in the 2-2 draw in the Old Firm derby with Celtic last weekend. But the Scotland U-21 international has revealed that he ultimately wants to take Tavernier's spot at right-back in the Light Blues side, and also says that the experienced Englishman has helped him with his own development in the early years of his professional career.
