LONDON (AP) — England’s Football Association wants an English coach to succeed Fabio Capello.
While the Italian remains contracted until the 2012 European Championship, discussions have already begun about the next coach.
Club England managing director Adrian Bevington told the BBC on Sunday that the people involved in the discussions so far have agreed that after Capello’s contract ends “we should have an English manager moving forward.”
Capello has been under pressure following England’s second-round exit at the World Cup. The former Real Madrid coach also was criticized this week for announcing the end of David Beckham’s England career on television.
