Gordon Ramsay has joked that he will apply for the vacant Rangers manager’s job.

The foul-mouthed Scots TV chef was asked by one fan on Twitter if he would consider taking on the role at Ibrox.

He said: "I'm in."

The 50-year-old supported Rangers as a boy and was a trialist with the club at youth level.

His comment came as chaos decended on Rangers as news broke of Mark Warburton's resignation- despite the Englishman denying it.

The Scottish giants insisted Warburton left of his own accord on Friday night amid claims he was surprised by the club announcing his exit.

The club said they had granted the English manager his wish to leave Ibrox, following negotiations with his representatives.

Glasgow Times:

Yet it was reported that Warburton was taken aback by the news, indicating he had received no warning of the 9pm statement detailing the end of his reign.

Now, the hunt is on to find a replacement for Mark Warburton with Alex McLeish the bookies favourite to take over the Ibrox hotseat.
