Michael Owen holding off management career

Former England striker Michael Owen admits that he is in no rush to get into management.

Former England striker Michael Owen has revealed that he is not desperate to get into management.

The 33-year-old, who played for Liverpool, Real Madrid and Manchester United, called an end to his career last month.

"I would never say never to management and I have taken my first couple of coaching badges already, but it's one of these things you can't go into half-hearted," Owen told FIFA's official website.

"It's a job that takes over your life and at this stage I want to do other things."

Owen earned 89 caps for England during his international career, scoring 40 goals in that time.
