Fabio Capello, manager of England football team, has hinted that he will be rejecting tempting offers from Inter Milan and would honor the remaining years of his contract with the Football Association (FA).
Capello was quoted by The Guardian as saying that the only way he can think of otherwise is if the FA sacks him.
From in.news.yahoo.com:
“I have a contract with the FA and the only way it will finish is if they decide to sack me,” The Guardian quoted Capello, as saying.
“I see my name linked with lots of jobs in England, Spain and Italy, but I’m happy here with the FA. I like my job, I like this country and I don’t think about my future. My future is about tomorrow and the World Cup,” he added.
Inter Milan President Massimo Moratti is understood to have identified Capello as his “ideal candidate” and first choice to replace Jose Mourinho.
According to reports, Moratti would be willing to treble his six-million-pound annual salary, after tax, in order to bring the former Milan, Roma and Juventus manager back to Italy.
Mourinho, who led Inter to an unprecedented treble of Serie A, the Coppa Italia and the Champions League, is under contract with the club until June 2012, but has decided to join Real Madrid to fulfill his dream of becoming the only coach to win the Champions League with three different clubs.
Capello is contracted to the FA until the end of Euro 2012.
