Andre Villas-Boas has no plans to make a return to the Premier League

Zenit St Petersburg coach Andre Villas-Boas plays down talk of him making a return to the Premier League, with the manager saying that he has no plans to leave the Russian side.

Zenit St Petersburg coach Andre Villas-Boas has played down speculation linking him with a move back to the Premier League.

Some reports have suggested that the Portuguese coach could be a good fit for Liverpool, with current boss Brendan Rodgers under increasing pressure following a poor start to this year's domestic campaign.

"I'm not the least bit interested in this. Returning to England is definitely not in my plans," Villas-Boas told a Portuguese television channel, according to The Mirror.

"I had talks with Liverpool, a club I admire a lot, but like I said it's not in my plans, although life takes many turns.

"I liked coaching in England, it was a positive experience, but negative things also happened."

Zenit currently lead the Russian top flight with 41 points from 17 games.
