Clement hints at Madrid exit

Real Madrid assistant coach Paul Clement has revealed that he is keen to try his hand at management.

The 42-year-old has worked alongside Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea, Paris-Saint Germain and Madrid, but he admits that he would find it hard to leave the current European Champions.

"I think the time for me to be a number one is soon," The Mirror quotes him as saying. "A few opportunities have come my way, but this is a difficult place to leave.

"It's a great club, a great city, a great tradition and it gives you the opportunity to win things.

"I'm not ruling anything out. It's more than likely it will be in England, but if a nice opportunity came up in another country I wouldn't rule it out."

Clement has helped Madrid to win the Champions League and the Copa del Rey in his first season at the club.
