Ex-Everton striker Jelavic: I want to be Premier League manager

Former Everton striker Nikica Jelavic wants to return to the Premier League in the near future.

Jelavic, who played for David Moyes at the Goodison Park club, is hoping to work as a manager.

The Croat managed 69 games for the Toffees, scoring 21 goals before eventually signing for Hull City.

Speaking to Sky Sports after playing in a Rangers Legends match, he stated: "I want to be a manager in the Premier League so this is the target for the future. I always try to set targets.

“Even when I was a player I was setting targets, goal targets, some numbers. Now, especially as a coach I want to set big targets - but step by step, of course."
