Ancelotti 'will wait for right job'

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Journalist Mark Ogden says Carlo Ancelotti will take his time in choosing his next move. Ogden, who spoke to the Italian in a newspaper interview published on Monday, said: "Carlo's view is he won't take a job until the season finishes. If the right opportunity doesn't come along, he'll wait another year. [Manchester United manager] Louis van Gaal's contract expires in 2017, there's a lot of doubt over [Arsenal manager] Arsene Wenger's future - if a big Premier League club job becomes available I think Carlo Ancelotti's name will be top of the list". Former Republic of Ireland international Kevin Kilbane agreed that Ancelotti would be a good choice for any Premier League club: "He will create an attacking brand of football, whilst also keeping the squad happy, which is imperative nowadays. With squads of 24/25 players, you have to keep everyone happy and that's what he does". This clip first appeared on 5 live Sport on 7 December 2015
