Alex McLeish eager for return to management

McLeish eager for management return
Former Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish reveals that he is eager to get back into management after spending more than a year away from the game.

Former Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish has revealed that he is eager for a return to management.

The Scot has been out of work since being sacked by Nottingham Forest in February 2013.

While admitting that he would consider options abroad, the 55-year-old is keen to continue his career in England.

"It's a little bit frustrating. It would be nice to get a wee opportunity again. Maybe even a change of scenery if nothing happens for me in England," he told Sky Sports News.

"But I would certainly like to get back into the English game as I feel I still have a bit to offer and there is still a bit of success in me yet."

McLeish enjoyed his most successful spell as a manager while at Rangers, winning three Scottish Premier League titles, two Scottish Cups and three Scottish League Cups between 2001 and 2006.
