Capello may take over reins of Real Madrid after World Cup
April 17th, 2010 - 3:38 pm ICT by ANILondon, Apr 17 (ANI): England boss Fabio Capello has not ruled out the option of again coaching the Real Madrid side after the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Real Madrid wants the England manager to take over for a third time.
“What happens after the World Cup finals? Who knows? Anything can happen in football.
“Fabio is aware of the story but he is concentrating only on the World Cup finals and his work with England,” The Sun quoted a source close to Capello, as saying.
“He has worked hard for two years to get the national team to this stage and nothing will distract him from the goal of winning the World Cup.
“Real can make all the noises they like but he will not listen while his work with England is ongoing,” the source added.
Capello’s contract with England team runs until 2012, but there is a clause allowing him to walk away this summer if he wants.
The Italian coach won two La Liga titles with Real and is seen as the right man to take over from Manuel Pellegrini.
However, he was fired by Real Madrid in June 2007, after leading them to their first title since 2003. (ANI)
