McCoist was discussing the day's transfer news and whether or not West Ham skipper Rice could make his way to Arsenal, and he brought up Jude Bellingham when 'much-loved' players came up.
Host Laura Woods pushed him for his favourite and his answer was both. But when asked for who he'd want at Rangers 'in a parallel universe', McCoist's answer was more clear. He stated: "Right now, Rice. Two years it will be Jude, I am coming back for Jude when he is 20!"
