Player on tour emptied vehicle (7)
I believe the answer is:
tractor
'vehicle' is the definition.
(tractor is a kind of vehicle)
'player on tour emptied' is the wordplay.
'player' becomes 'actor' (synonyms).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'emptied' suggests removing the centre.
'tour' with its middle taken out is 'tr'.
'actor' put after 'tr' is 'TRACTOR'.
(Other definitions for tractor that I've seen before include "Vehicle for pulling others" , "Type of truck with a a cab but no body" , "Farm machine used for pulling" , "Tower" , "Farming vehicle" .)
