Fabio Capello keen to manage a Premier League club

Capello admits PL desire

Former England manager Fabio Capello has revealed that he would one day like to coach a Premier League side following his four-year stint at the helm of the Three Lions.

The Italian was replaced by Roy Hodgson on Tuesday after the 65-year-old stepped down from the national team in February.

"England would be very interesting for me because I know very well the teams and the players," Capello told The Times. "I want to manage a team that wants to win something, if possible.

"It has to be interesting based on the value of the team, not money. I don't work for money. I want to manage a team that is able to play in the Champions League and to fight for lots of trophies."

It is believed that Capello has already turned down a number of job offers from abroad.
