Aussie legend Harry Kewell is set to launch his coaching career with Watford.

The Daily Mail says Watford are hoping to appoint Kewell as coach of their Under 21 team.

The former Leeds and Liverpool winger, who retired last year after ending his playing career with Melbourne Heart in the A-League, has established a youth academy in his native Australia and is keen to return to England to launch a coaching career.

Liverpool have also shown an interest in luring the 36-year-old back to Merseyside as part of their youth development set-up.
