Frank McAvennie reckons it would be 'criminal' and the Rangers board should be held 'accountable' if Ryan Kent leaves for nothing.
The Light Blues attacker is into the final 12 months of his current contract at Ibrox and is yet to strike a deal over fresh terms with Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men - a similar situation to team-mate and fellow fans' favourite Alfredo Morelos.
Steven Gerrard initially brought him to the club on a season-long loan from Liverpool before shelling out £7million to make the move permanent. Now at Aston Villa, the Anfield legend has been linked with a move for his former star. Kent, who grabbed his first goal of the season in the win over Hearts, can speak to clubs about a pre-contract move come January if he doesn't agree terms before that point.
