Northern Ireland captain Steven Davis signs new Ibrox deal; former Fulham and Southampton midfielder targets more silverware after Scottish Cup final win; the 37-year-old will also work on his coaching development under Giovanni van Bronckhorst

Steven Davis is targetting more silverware after signing a one-year contract extension with Rangers.

The 37-year-old Northern Ireland captain, who is the most capped British footballer of all time, was coming to the end of his current contract but will remain at Ibrox as manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst builds his squad for next season.

“I am absolutely delighted,” the midfielder told the club’s website.

“It was a really important season for us last year, and to finish on a high with the Scottish Cup was important for the team and the group and we want to try and kick on again next year now.

“Growing up as a Rangers fan, it was always going to be special pulling on the jersey, and I have been very fortunate to do it the number of times that I have and to have some of the memories I have had.Steven Davis agrees new one-year Rangers deal to help him develop as a  coach | Football News | Sky Sports

“We know success is what is demanded at the club, and you want to play at the highest level possible, and we have shown we are capable of doing that as a group, so it is really important we try to kick on next season and get our hands on more silverware.”

Davis initially joined Rangers on loan from Fulham in January 2008, and made the move permanent at the end of the season and stayed until the summer of 2012 before he signed for Southampton.
