Maradona would like to manage in England

He told Sky Sports News: "Yes, I would like to manage in the Premier League.It has very good teams, an exceptional level and great players. The only problem is all the teams I like in England have good coaches.

"If any important job comes along I will accept it."

"I want to make it clear that I didn't offer myself for any job, nor did anyone offer me anything," he said. "But I know I will go back with the national team some day. That is my fate. I'm waiting.

"They took the national team away from me unfairly.I don't want to talk about it, it doesn't deserve any words. I am in too good a mood to talk about people who don't deserve my words. But I do miss the national team."
