Gianfranco Zola: "I would love to coach Chelsea"

Former Chelsea striker Gianfranco Zola has admitted that he would like to take charge of the club.

However, the Italian has revealed that this is not the right time for him to take the reins at Stamford Bridge.

"I would love to coach Chelsea, but the conditions are not right at this point," Zola told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"I have received a number of offers, but it all depends on whether I believe in the project."

The 45-year-old has been linked with the management jobs at Lazio and Melbourne Victory in recent weeks.
