Mancini keen to manage in England

Former Sampdoria and Italy star Roberto Mancini is looking to get back into management, preferably with an English club.

The 44-year old has led Fiorentina, Lazio and Inter Milan with his last job ending in May 2008 after a falling out with Inter boss Massimo Moratti.

But Mancini has decided to get back into the caper and had targeted the English Premier League.

"I've annulled my deal with Inter because I want to come back coaching," he told Italian TV show Le Lene.

"Where? I'd prefer the (English) Premiership. I've not coached in more than a year and in this period I've had about three or four proposals.

"But it's not true that I'm not coaching because I want too much money.

"Money for me has never been the most important thing, either as a player or as a coach."
