Brazil's ex-Chelsea boss Scolari keen on England comeback

Luiz Felipe Scolari has revealed he harbours ambitions to again manage in England.

The Brazil boss took the reins at Chelsea for seven months from the summer of 2008 but suggests that his tenure ended due to player issues and is open to a Premier League return before he retires.

"I had a number of concerns with one or two players," Scolari said.

"As I am South American, I have a different way of seeing things, and certain people did not like that.

"But I don't want to focus on the negatives. It was good to work in England.

"I am thinking about coaching for three or four more years, so why won't I come back to the Premier League one day?"
