Rangers sold Martyn Waghorn to Ipswich Town in August 2017 for an estimated fee of £990k (Transfermarkt).
Since then, he’s largely made a mockery of that transfer fee.
During his solitary season at Ipswich, he tore up the Championship scoring 16 goals and registering eleven assists across the league campaign.
During the summer, Derby County then gave Ipswich roughly five times (Transfermarkt) what the latter had paid the Gers for his services.
So far, he’s shown his worth mainly in cup competitions.
Big goals in both the FA and League Cup took the Rams deep into both competitions.

On Saturday afternoon, though, he turned it on in the Championship.
He scored a hat-trick, as Frank Lampard’s team swept aside Rotherham at Pride Park.
The 29-year-old scored a header sandwiched in between two penalties, in an impressive display.
Would he walk into Gerrard’s best XI?
You’d have to say that right now, he would improve the Rangers team.
His value has increased exponentially since he left Glasgow, as goals and assists have flowed with great regularity.
He was far from shabby during his stint in Scotland, either, notching 27 goals in 45 league starts for the Gers.
A danger in the air and strong over the ball, he would have been a great weapon to deploy at Parkhead on Sunday afternoon.
