Arsenal academy boss Liam Brady admits his future as Republic of Ireland assistant coach is up-in-the-air.
The Italian and assistant Marco Tardelli have had their contracts extended until 2012 and the Italian is keen to keep his team intact.
But Brady, who combines his international duties with his role as head of youth development and academy director for the Gunners, will speak to his club after the final World Cup qualifiers, against Italy on Saturday and Montenegro next Wednesday, before deciding.
He said: "I need to talk to Arsenal and I am going to do it when all this is concluded."
