Former United boss missing football.
Former Manchester United and Everton boss David Moyes has told the
Daily Telegraph that he is keen to return to management after his nightmare spell in charge at Old Trafford
The Scot spent just nine months in charge of United before being
dismissed for a terrible run of form, though he had previously been a
highly regarded Premier League coach for his work done during his time
at Everton.
Moyes has been linked with a number of jobs since
leaving United, and though he has not been specific about where he would
like to work next, he has admitted a temptation to try his luck with a
position abroad.
Moyes
draws inspiration from the likes of the late Sir Bobby Robson and Terry
Venables, who both left Britan to work with foreign clubs, and he says
that there isn’t enough of that in the modern game.
The 51-year-old was linked with the Galatasaray
job during the summer, though it eventually went to former Italy boss
Cesare Prandelli, but it may be that he will be keeping an eye on
similar opportunities in the future rather than returning immediately to
a job with a Premier League club.
“I’m ready to go,” he said.
“I’ve no time-scale. I’m enjoying the break but I’m a football man and I
want to work. I feel my best years are ahead of me and I do feel I am
still a young manager. I’ve lots to learn and lots I want to put into
practice.
“Picking my next job is vitally important, I’m well
aware of that. I’ve an open mind as to what it will be and where it will
be – if it’s in the Premier League or in the UK, that’s fine.
“But
if it’s abroad then I’m okay with that. I have always been an advocate
of players and coaches going abroad if that’s the right opportunity. It
doesn’t happen, not enough anyway.
“You look at how well Terry
Venables did in Spain and how well Bobby Robson did – they are up there
with the great managers and both had periods working in Europe.”
