Mark Walters has urged Rangers wing star Ryan Kent not to make the same mistake he did and leave Ibrox with unfinished business.
The talented former England international followed Graeme Souness to Liverpool in a £1.25million move thirty years ago - a deal he now looks back on with regret.
Kent has been linked with a similar move to the bright lights of the Premier League with Leeds United keen to see the fleet-footed winger join Marcelo Bielsa's squad.
Walters is a big fan of the Oldham born player but urged him to stick around and feature in the Champions League next season rather than rushing towards the English top flight.
He said: "Ryan is a great player and someone I really enjoy watching.
"He's two-footed, which I like. I saw he scored a great goal against Hibs at the weekend with his weaker left foot.
"I've been so impressed by his performances. He's contributing more this season in terms of numbers. That's absolutely something that wide men have to chip in with in today's game if they want to be successful.
"For a team like Rangers, you have to be scoring goals and assisting too. It's not just about playing well but Ryan has come on bundles in the last 12 months.
"Ryan is in a great team right now and, personally, I think he's still got a lot to do up there.
"If he left I don't think it would be great for his progress.
"I can understand teams will be interested in him because he is playing so well.
"I don't know what his long-term ambitions are but, for me, he needs to have another good season up in Glasgow then think about that.
"I'm sure Rangers will be disappointed they didn't do better in Europe this season and they will have the Champions League to aim for next term.
"Hopefully he hangs around for that because, in my opinion, there are not many clubs Ryan could get that would be an improvement on Rangers.
"They are a club that can fulfil all his ambitions at the moment.
"Only Ryan knows what he wants to achieve but, for me, he'd be crazy to move this summer.''
Walters knows only too well the grass isn't always greener when you depart Ibrox and openly admits he made the wrong decision to leave in 1991 to join old gaffer Graeme Souness.
He said: "With hindsight, I shouldn't have left Rangers.
"I had literally 24 hours to make my mind up. I had the situation with the three-foreigner rule going on in my head. I didn't want the fact I'd be classed as a foreign player to be the reason for why I'd be left out for big games in Europe.
"Rangers offered me more money, more everything but with hindsight leaving was a stupid thing to do.
"At the time I thought it was right as I was getting the chance to carry on working with a fantastic manager in Graeme Souness.
"I was winning one or two trophies a year at Ibrox but after that I only got two more winners' medals for finals I never played in, so it is something I regret.''
