Chelsea's Ancelotti interested in coaching England

Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is interested in taking charge of England in the future.

Ancelotti's contract with the Premier League champions expires in 2012 - just when fellow Italian Fabio Capello is due to step down as England coach after the European Championship.

Asked about the possibility of taking the England job, the 51-year-old Ancelotti said: ''I would like to do it in the future, to have this kind of experience. I have never been the coach of a national team.''

Ancelotti has quickly adapted to English football, leading Chelsea to the Premier League and FA Cup titles in May at the end of his first season at Stamford Bridge.
