The Russian football federation said Tuesday on its website that Fabio Capello, Harry Redknapp and Marcelo Bielsa will also be considered, as will former Russia coaches Anatoly Byshovets, Valery Gazzayev and Yuri Syomin.

Capello stepped down as England coach before Euro 2012 and has managed Real Madrid and Inter Milan, Redknapp was fired last month from Tottenham while Bielsa currently coaches Athletic Bilbao.
Symomin, currently at Dynamo Kiev, stepped down as Russia coach after failing to qualify for the 2006 World Cup. Gazzayev coached the national team in 2002-03 and Byshovets led Russia in 1998 - 10 years after guiding the Soviet team to Olympic gold.
Other Russians on the list are: Valery Nepomnyashchy, who led Cameroon into the quarterfinals of the 1990 World Cup, current Russian under-21 manager Nikolai Pisarev, Andrei Kobelev and Yuri Krasnozhan.
