FORMER REAL MADRID and Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti has ruled out a move to Liverpool – but says he intends to return to management next season.
Ancelotti had been touted as a possible replacement for Brendan Rodgers at Anfield, but frontrunner Jurgen Klopp looks likely to pen a three-year-deal with the club.
The 56-year-old, who has been out of work since his sacking from the Bernabeu at the end of the 2014-15 season, claims he is happy to take a season out of the spotlight before taking on a new role.
He told the Associated Press at the Inspiring Leaders Awards on Tuesday night: “I enjoy my time now but of course I want to come back to manage – to work – because it is my passion.
“I want to take my time to rest, but next season I am ready.”
Can’t be any joy in that for either team.
There’s a great documentary called Next Goal Wins about that American Samoa team
Is that the documentary about an irish backpacker that ended up coaching them ?
Awesome documentary,they’re a seriously loveable team.
No, a MLS coach comes down from the US to train the team!
Yeah a Dutch lad and he’s mad as a bag of shpiders
Is there a lovable fat kid in it? Like in the movies?
No doubt we would scrapea 2-0 win and the result would be hailed as a success.
still ranked higher than Ireland
Not actually true as Micronesia isn’t an official FIFA qualifying country and the team was made up mainly of under-23 as it was an Olympic qualifier. The Australia vs American Samoa match is still the biggest win.
…should have read the article first. My bad… Red thumbs welcome.
What a laugh…..qualification for the Olympics.
