Diouf heaps embarrassment on Rangers by admitting he admires his 'friend' Gaddafi
El-Hadji Diouf's seemingly endless desire to court controversy took another twist last night with the stunning admission that he admires Colonel Gaddafi.
The hot-headed Rangers striker, who appears to revel in his bad-boy image, told an African magazine that he regards the Libyan tyrant and his son Saif as 'my friends'.
There will be those within Ibrox squirming with embarrassment that Diouf has heaped further bad publicity on the troubled club - and they will be equally disappointed that the player went on to insist Madjid Bougherra must quit Rangers in the summer and set his sights on a move to the English Premiership.
Gaddafi is a man who I have always admired,' declared Diouf. 'I am telling the truth. I know him, and I know his son Saif as well. They are my friends.
'I do not honestly know what is really happening in Libya at the moment, but it must be very hard for Gaddafi and his family.
'I cannot remain far away from what is happening in Libya. I do not know who is in the right and who is wrong, but it is a shame to see so many victims.
'By the will of Allah, victory will go to the side that is in the right.'
While Diouf's comments on world events will leave many incredulous, his insistence that Bougherra decant Ibrox for the Premiership will not be welcomed by Walter Smith.
The popular defender is set to return to the side tonight against Dundee United - Diouf is expected to make way for Steven Naismith - with QPR the latest club linked with his signing.
And Diouf said: 'Madjid needs a new challenge at the end of the season and he has to go to the Premier League and nowhere else.'
With Sunday's Old Firm derby looming at Ibrox, Diouf also reopened his wounds with Celtic skipper Scott Brown by claiming he deliberately taunted him when he lifted the League Cup at Hampden last month.
Diouf and Brown could meet again at Ibrox on Sunday - after their infamous clash in the Scottish Cup tie on February 6.
'When we won the League Cup at Hampden my celebration was targeted,' said Diouf, who held the Cup out in a similar way to Brown's stance at Ibrox. 'We made Celtic jealous, but that is life.'
The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

El Hadji Diouf arrested after Manchester club fight
Six men, including footballer El Hadji Diouf, were arrested after a nightclub brawl which left a man seriously hurt.
The Doncaster Rovers striker is understood to be one of five men who were bailed until 23 May following the fight at a Manchester club.
QPR's Anton Ferdinand is understood to have been interviewed under police caution but not arrested.
A 33-year-old man is seriously ill but stable in hospital, said a Greater Manchester Police spokesman.
The alleged incident took place at 03:40 BST on Sunday in the Circle Club and the injured man was found close to the Barton Arcade club.
A GMP statement said: "Six men were arrested on suspicion of violent disorder, five of whom have been bailed until 23 May pending further police inquiries.
"Another man has assisted the investigation, which is ongoing."
Mr Diouf, 31, who appeared for Senegal in the 2002 World Cup and has previously played for Liverpool, Bolton and Blackburn, did not play in Doncaster's 4-3 defeat by Portsmouth on Saturday, which saw them relegated from the Championship.
Mr Ferdinand, 27, who was a team-mate of Mr Diouf's at Sunderland and is the brother of Manchester United and England defender Rio Ferdinand, played in his club's 1-0 defeat at West Bromwich Albion on the same day.
