Southampton Confirm Steven Davis Has Joined Rangers on Loan Until the End of the Season

Southampton have officially announced that Steven Davis will be joining his former side Rangers on loan until the end of the season.

Davis joined the Saints from the Scottish outfit back in 2012 and has gone on to make over 226 appearances on the south coast. His current contract is set to expire at the end of the season and it appears unlikely that the club will be offering an extension.
