Rangers legend Paul Gascoigne says he touched Les Ferdinand’s penis before matches… to bring him luck.

The Gers hero made the startling claim at a charity event saying he was so impressed by his England teammate's manhood he wanted 'to hold the thing'.

He said: "In the dressing room, Les Ferdinand, I swear down, when he took his clothes off he made mine look small.

"I went ‘Les, Les please, please let me have one f****** hold of that thing’.

"So he let me have a hold of it.

Glasgow Times:

"And I went out played a blinder and scored, right. I thought ‘f****** brilliant’.

"So the next game at Wembley, ‘Les get it out’.

"And every time we played for England Les went ‘hurry up and get it over with Gazza'."

However, a lauging Les told the The Sun: "That’s absolute nonsense.

"That never happened - I think he’s away with the fairies on that one."

Gascoigne was speaking at event to raise money for the Jay Lennon Foundation.
