Fiorentina boss Montella admits Premier League ambitions

Fiorentina boss Vincenzo Montella admits he'd like to work in England. Montella was speaking before their Europa League win over Tottenham.

"One day, I would like to [work in England]," Montella told the London Standard.

"I know very well that it is a journey but I'm learning English and after that, who knows? I'm doing better with English.

"I wouldn't say I was at a very high level but my tutor says I could speak it and I try to have a lesson most weeks.

"So I hope so, because I like English football very much. I'm inspired by the work of coaches like Carlo Ancelotti and Roberto Mancini, who did very well indeed at Chelsea and Manchester City respectively."
