Gullit couldn't turn Milan down

Ruud Gullit has admitted that he could not turn down the chance to manage AC Milan if the opportunity ever arose.

Gullit was part of the legendary Milan side of the late 1980s and early 1990s, and the Dutchman has said that he would not say no if he if were asked to take control at the San Siro.

"It'd be an honour if they were to call me for the bench," said Gullit.

"Who could you say no to such an important club? You never know what can happen, although the team is in good hands right now [under Massimiliano Allegri].

"I had the best time of my career with the Rossoneri."

Gullit signed for Milan in 1987 for a then world-record breaking £6m.
