Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari claims that he would welcome the opportunity to work in England again before he retires.

Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has claimed that he would welcome the opportunity to work in England again before he retires.

The 64-year-old was sacked by Chelsea in February 2009 after just seven months in charge at Stamford Bridge.

He claims that he was undermined by player-power during his short spell in London and admits that he is still open to offers from teams in the Premier League.

"I had a number of concerns with one or two players," he explained. "As I am South American, I have a different way of seeing things, and certain people did not like that.

"But I don't want to focus on the negatives. It was good to work in England.

"I am thinking about coaching for three or four more years, so why won't I come back to the Premier League one day?"

Scolari has managed clubs in Brazil, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan.
