David Moyes has admitted his interest in returning home to Glasgow to manage either side of the Old Firm.

The former Celtic defender has been heavily linked with the Hoops' job in the past - notably in 2014 after his sacking at Manchester United and again in 2016 before he took over at Sunderland.

Indeed Moyes told Record Sport two years ago that he held talks with Peter Lawwell after Ronny Deila left the club but walked away from the chance to return because he wanted to remain in the English Premier League.

With Brendan Rodgers contracted to the seven-in-a-row champions for another three years the chances of the job becoming vacant any time soon are extremely slim.

Likewise across the city at Rangers , where Steven Gerrard has got off to a solid start to life in management.

Nevertheless Moyes, currently out of work after a successful spell at West Ham last season saw him steer the London club away from relegation and to a respectable 13th place finish, was asked today if he would ever be interested in a return to Scotland to manage either of his home city's rivals.

The 55-year-old told Si Ferry's Open Goal : "Yeah I would be.

"I've been close to a few of them once or twice and thought about it a lot. I would be.

"It's my home and I'd like to come back and do it sometime, but while the Premier League's so strong, that would probably still remain my interest."

Earlier this year Moyes opened the door to Scotland before Alex McLeish was appointed.

He told talkSPORT he would "definitely" like to manage his country one day.
