James Tavernier and Steven Davis react as player leaves Rangers on permanent deal
George Edmundson has completed a permanent move to League One side Ipswich Town from Rangers. It has been a difficult time north of the border for the powerful centre-back, struggling for game time. James Tavernier and Steven Davis have given their verdicts on Edmundson leaving Rangers.
Edmundson, 23, joined Rangers in the summer of 2019 having clocked up 79 appearances for boyhood club Oldham Athletic. But the defender only ever got 17 appearances under Steven Gerrard in the 18 months he was situated at Rangers. In the second half of last season, he went on loan to Derby.
Again, it was a tale of being on the fringes under Wayne Rooney. Just 10 games and one goal came his way. Now, he has completed a permanent exit – joining League One promotion hopefuls Ipswich Town. Edmundson posted a touching, long-winded message to Rangers fans on Instagram.
What have Tavernier and Davis said, as Edmundson leaves Rangers?
Edmundson has left Rangers for an upfront fee of £750,000, according to the . Not only that, but that figure is likely to increase over time in the form of add-ons and performance bonuses. It is a pricey deal for a third-tier English club.
Penning a four-year contract at Portman Road, Edmundson can now focus on his future. He is joining a club where he is likely to be first choice in the heart of their defence. Responding to his post, Tavernier and Davis both wish him luck moving forward. Tavernier used his nickname, “fridge”.
