Lippi: I'd like to coach Chelsea
Marcello Lippi has thrown his hat into the ring of potential candidates for the Chelsea job should Carlo Ancelotti get the sack.
The 62-year-old is ready to coach again after stepping down from coaching the Italian national team at the end of last summer's World Cup.
Speaking to Radio Mana Mana, Lippi said: “I miss coaching. This is normal. My years in the game were intense and gratifying.
“There were also disappointments, but this is absolutely normal. You can't always win. In this respect I can't but consider myself satisfied, but the desire to coach is still there.
“I would like to coach in the Premier League.”
When asked if he would be interested in the Chelsea job, Lippi replied: “It would be good, but coaching a national team also wouldn't be bad.”

Marcello Lippi claims he would consider a return to Juventus if he feels the club needs his services.
The 63-year-old was close to a third stint at the Turin giants last year, but it became inopportune.
Since then, he has always denied showing any interest in the job.
“Now there is new management, the best that can be because Andrea is the latest Agnelli to become President and it's a very beautiful thing,” Lippi said. “He has enthusiasm and ability.”
Asked about the prospect of his return, Lippi replied: “Never say never. But this is not me putting forward my candidacy. It's an explanation.
“In fact I have said that I will no longer sit on Italian benches if not for reasons of the heart and the heart leads to a club with whom I've had a special relationship.
“If one day Juventus were to need a hand, and I hope they won't because it means that everything is going well, I would give it to them in any way.”
Too good to be true ?
