Former Manchester United defender Jaap Stam claims that he would like to coach in England next season.

Former Manchester United defender Jaap Stam has claimed that he would like to coach in England next season.

The 40-year-old announced on Thursday that he would be quitting his role as assistant manager at Dutch club PEC Zwolle at the end of the current campaign.

Head coach Art Langeler will also be stepping down in the summer.

"I would love to join a bigger club," Stam told Voetbal International. "At the moment nothing is concrete yet, but I think for me this is the right moment to make the next step.

"A few weeks ago I told the board that it was my choice to stop. I want to take a look around, that could be in Holland or a foreign country. It is well known that English football really attracts me."

Stam, who also played for PSV Eindhoven, AC Milan and Ajax, called time on his 15-year career in 2007.
