West Ham United legend Paolo Di Canio admits he wants a coaching career in England.

Di Canio had a short spell as player-coach with Cisco Roma and is keen to get serious about a new career.

"I'm still tied up with English football, which I think is the absolute best from every point of view," said Di Canio. "I hope to be able to work there as a coach.

"On Monday I'll begin a course involving, among others, Leonardo (AC Milan) and Gianluca Atzori (Catania). It will be nice to meet them and begin this new adventure with enthusiasm."
