Rangers skipper James Tavernier has been included in the EA Sports FIFA Team of the Week alongside stars from European giants like Real Madrid and Chelsea.
Tavernier had been receiving plenty of criticism during the early stages of the season after a minor dip in form.
However, he was influential in terms of goals and assists throughout October before producing his best performance on the final day of the month, which also happened to be his 30th birthday.
Tav inspired a fantastic Rangers comeback at Fir Park on Sunday as the Gers came from 1-0 down to win 6-1.
His fine volley brought the visitors level and then he set up his side’s second and fourth goals.
The right-back was named the WhoScored.com Premiership Player of the Month on Tuesday and now, he’s made it into the FIFA Team of the Week.
Tavernier (84) has been named alongside some very high-profile stars.
PSG skipper Marquinhos is the highest-rated player included (88), while the likes of Chelsea’s Reece James (84), Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jnr (85) and Yannick Carrasco of Atletico Madrid (86) were all also named.
It’s a well-deserved accolade for the Gers skipper, but supporters may not want him to get too much more coverage, as transfer interest could soon ramp up ahead of the January window.
In other news, Brondby have reportedly been dealt a significant blow ahead of their Europa League clash with Rangers.
