Former England international Paul Gascoigne, popularly known as 'Gazza', who has been fighting a long battle against alcohol, reportedly vowed that he wants to open a 'Gazza Bar' chain.

Gazza took to Twitter to ask his fans if anyone was interested in helping him start a 'Gazza Bar' franchise with rights to use his name and also asked any possible business partners to get in touch with his sister Lindsay to talk about a deal.

According to the Daily Star, Gazza, who had been in rehab some weeks ago to quit his life-threatening booze addiction, tweeted to his fans asking them if anyone is interested in opening a 'Gazza Bar' as he owns the rights to both Paul Gascoigne and Gazza.

Gazza further added that anyone who is interested in opening up a bar chain then they should tweet his sister Lindsay and it would be fun.

One of his fans called Martin replied to his tweets that Gazza's Bar would be better than Wayne Lineker's bar anyway, as he compared the former England midfielder's plan to the Lineker chain of holiday theme bars owned by brother of Gazza's ex-teammate Gary Linker, the report added.

Gazza made a Twitter account last week and has been posting tweets non-stop since then, the report further added.
