FEYENOORD manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst has ruled himself out of the running for the Rangers job but hinted that he would be open to a move in the future.
The former Ibrox defender won two league titles, two Scottish Cups and League Cup during a successful spell in Scotland and has been linked with the managerial vacancy at the Gers.
He guided Feyenoord to their first Dutch title in 18 years last season and back into the Champions League group stages, but the Dutchman insisted he is going nowhere ahead of his side's clash with Manchester City tonight.

However, the 42-year-old suggested that a return to the Light Blues might be on the cards in the future as he still looks back fondly on his time with Rangers.
"I have seen the media coverage but I am fully focused at Feyenoord and I will be focusing on Feyenoord for the next years," he said.
"I obviously had a great time in Scotland with Rangers, I think one of the best times I had abroad.
"But at the moment, for me, all that counts is Feyenoord. You can never tell, maybe in the future, because it is still a club in my heart."
