JAMES Tavernier has snapped up a £1million flat – and it could be a huge hint to where his future lies.
The Rangers skipper was involved in an ill-mannered confrontation with a raging fan following last week’s 3-0 defeat to Celtic in the Old Firm derby.

Since then speculation over his future at the club has been rife.
But the 32-year-old’s recent purchase would suggest he is staying in Glasgow, for now.
That’s because the new pad is in one of Scotland’s priciest homes hotspots.
Tavernier bought the flat in Glasgow’s affluent Park Circus through a firm set up with wife Melissa.
Their latest property bought last April is near where bra tycoon Michelle Mone previously had a property of her own.
And it is close to where Outlander prequel Blood of my Blood was filmed earlier this year.

Company documents revealed his JTMT Properties firm set up with wife Melissa, 32, has assets of £3,079,838.
Among thheir five investment properties include homes in Poole, Dorset.
The star remained at Ibrox despite transfer speculation linking him with a move away during the transfer window.
The transfer window slammed shut on September 1.
And a source said: “Speculation has been at fever pitch over the Gers skipper’s future in recent weeks.
“But regardless of his next move career-wise this buy appears to show he places a high value on his links to Glasgow.”
Tav and Melissa, 32, wed in 2018.
The Ibrox Hall of Famer has been linked with a return to England in recent months and was heavily courted by Turkish clubs in the summer.
Former boss Steven Gerrard was also believed to be keen on a reunion in Saudi Arabia.
And it has recently been reported that the defender had SIX offers from multiple countries to leave Rangers during the transfer window.
