Gennaro Gattuso keen on Rangers job

Former Rangers midfielder Gennaro Gattuso says that he would like to return to Ibrox as manager, but only when the club's boardroom battles have been resolved.

Former Rangers midfielder Gennaro Gattuso has revealed that he would love to return to Ibrox as manager, but only when the club's boardroom issues have been settled.

A number of Rangers shareholders, led by Dave King, hope to remove the current Gers board.

Gattuso has been linked with the vacant post at the Scottish Championship side since the departure of Ally McCoist last month,
but the Italian believes that there is no point in opening negotiations while there are so many groups fighting for control of the club.

"I still have a lot of memories here. It was 15 years ago that I started to play here. I felt the same running out there again. I'm maybe carrying five of six kilos more but it still felt fantastic," the 37-year-old told The Scotsman.

"But now the club has big problems. They need to find a way of solving those. Of course I would be interested in the vacancy. I stopped playing two years ago. Now my job is to become a coach. That's normal.

"But at this time the road [to the Rangers job] is far away. We can speak but the problem now is that there is not one chairman but five people in control of the club. It's difficult."

Gattuso, who spent a year at Rangers after joining them in 1997, has recently had short spells in charge of Palermo and OFI Crete.
