Gary McAllister has not ruled out returning to Rangers with Steven Gerrard.

The former Scotland midfielder was one of Gerrard's assistants, along with Michael Beale, during his first spell at the Ibrox club, before following him to Aston Villa.

McAllister could be an option to return as part of his coaching staff, with the 45-year-old strongly linked with the post once again.

He appeared positive about the idea when asked by Sky Sports.

He said: "That’s a big question that.

"But you never say never, do you?

"We had a wonderful time there, we really enjoyed our time there and Steven did an amazing job to get that 55th title.

"There have been three or four managerial changes since then and Steven is always going to be linked with Glasgow Rangers because he loved his time up there."
