Former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel has admitted he has an interest in the director of football job.

United have still not decided on who will be taking on that role, a job that has not been previously available at the club.

And legendary keeper Schmeichel has thrown his hat in the ring for the job.

"Of course you'd be interested, because it's a massive job, but also you've to sit back a little bit and agree with yourself and make sure you have the pedigree or capability of doing it," Schmeichel told beIN SPORTS.

"If the club really wanted me to do that, I'd be interested of course."
