Cardiff? Brighton? Jorge Jesus reveals Premier League offer

Former Sporting CP coach Jorge Jesus has revealed he's been contacted by a Premier League club.

The Portuguese says the club in question was hovering above the dropzone.

He said: "I am fortunate to be able to choose, if I do not like what they present to me, I do not work. In England, I have the possibility of starting work in May. I will not say which team is in a difficult position on the Premier League table and is able to go down.

"I said I would think about it and I will do that, but it is not my priority."

Jorge Jesus added: "I want to finish my career in Portugal, but I do not want to be a destabilising target for anyone. I have a beautiful history in Braga, I won the only international title there, Intertoto. Sporting and FC Porto in terms of infrastructures, but nobody spoke to me, only one club in England spoke to me."

Cardiff City and Brighton have been mentioned as potential suitors for Jorge Jesus.
