Rangers confirm interest in AC Milan legend

The leader of the consortium that are expected to buy the club, Charles Green, has revealed they are keen to sign Gattuso once Rangers leave administration.

“Gattuso himself came out publicly and said he would love to join Rangers and after the illustrious career he has had in Milan, that’s great,” Green told the club’s official website.

“His agent came over and we met with him to explain the difficulties surrounding the club. To me, it’s a massive positive he wants to come.”

Rangers are unable to sign any new players under a year-long ban imposed by the Scottish FA but the club have taken action to try to overturn the decision.

“The SPL can’t register any players because we are in administration and the SFA and the club have been in a very public dispute for some time,” Green added.

“However, the manager has identified a number of people from a playing point of view he would be interested in.

“The manager actually played with Gattuso years ago when he was here at the club in the late 1990s.

“From my point of view as CEO, we’ve sat with Ally and arranged a budget with him and should we be allowed to sign players, he will be able to do so.”
