West Bromwich Albion defender Joleon Lescott is preparing himself for a coaching career.
The Mirror says with the FA, the Premier League and the Football League all ready to address the lack of black bosses in the English game, Lescott has started taking his coaching badges.
The 32-year-old, who scored in his club's 3-2 defeat at QPR on Saturday, is planning for life after his playing career and is determined to achieve the required qualifications to make the next step.
