Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher is set to be invited into the England coaching setup.
The Daily Mail says Carragher will be invited into the England coaching set-up after the FA identified him as a potential international manager.
The inspirational Liverpool defender is to be offered the chance to launch his coaching career working with young England teams.
He has been identified as an elite player with serious coaching ambitions capable of helping youngsters through the international ranks, as well as establishing his credentials as a potential national boss.
Carragher's involvement would not immediately mean a role working directly with Fabio Capello's first team, but the FA are keen to absorb him, and others like him, into the system rather than see him drift into television like BBC pundit Alan Shearer.
