Former Italy and Juventus coach Marcello Lippi wants to return to work.

The 2006 World Cup winner has not worked since the dismal first round exit last year in South Africa, although he has been linked with numerous jobs.

"I won't spend another winter at home doing nothing," he told TG1.

"I will go back to management, preferably for a national team ahead of Brazil 2014."
