Jermain Defoe reveals 'honest' Rangers sit down with Gio van Bronckhorst as he swoons over Ibrox talent level

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Convinced Jermain Defoe believes he still has plenty to give as a player despite his Rangers career coming to an end on Wednesday.

The 39-year-old had become an increasingly peripheral figure under Gio van Bronckhorst 's new regime, with the former England international also working as a pundit for Sky.

Defoe joined Steven Gerrard 's coaching set-up in the wake of their Premiership title win, while also remaining as registered player.

And he admits a sit down with van Bronckhorst was an important step over what would come next in his career amid limited opportunities.
