Newcastle United are considering a move for Rangers star James Tavernier before the end of the month. Steve Bruce sent his top scouts to watch the Gers’ captain during the Old Firm derby last weekend, with an eye to a bid later this month. Newcastle have been plagued with injuries this season, and have a defensive crisis at the moment. Emil Kraft has struggled to break into the Newcastle team this season, after arriving from Amiens on loan in the summer. “It’s a compliment and that is how I see it, but all my emphasis is on Rangers,” said Tavernier.
