Soccer: Laudrup interested in Scotland return

Former Rangers winger Brian Laudrup has declared he fancies a return to Scotland.

Former Rangers winger Brian Laudrup has declared he fancies a return to Scotland.

Laudrup, who played in Rangers old boys' Auld Old Firm charity victory over their Celtic counterparts, insists he will not be coming out of retirement.

But the Dane is looking to resume his career in football, probably in coaching and said: "I wouldn't mind coming back to Scotland."

He continued: "At this stage I'm not thinking about that but you never know about the future."

Laudrup, whose last club was Copenhagen after his Chelsea move fell flat, added: "After 13 or 14 years as a professional, I think you need some distance.

"I'm taking a year off. I'm doing some TV work but whether I would like to go back as a coach I don't know yet.

"Football has been a very central part of my life so I think I would like to get back into football in some way. Maybe not as a manager but maybe I could find the right position for me."
