Rangers land Wigan duo Tavernier, Waghorn

Scottish club Rangers have completed the signing of Wigan Athletic duo James Tavernier and Martyn Waghorn.

Both players have signed three-year deals with the Glasgow giants ahead of the 2015/16 Scottish Championship season.

25-year-old striker Waghorn, who has had previous spells at Premier League clubs Sunderland and Leicester, scored eight goals during 18 months with the Latics.

Right-back Tavernier, 23, spent the second half of last season on loan with Bristol City and helped them gain promotion to the Championship. He has previously spent time on loan at such clubs as Sheffield Wednesday, MK Dons and Rotherham United during his stint with Newcastle United.
