Capello named new England manager

Capello has signed a four-and-a-half year deal worth around £6m a year, according to reports.

“Fabio is very, very open and happy to include an English coach – or English coaches – within his staff,” said FA director of communications Adrian Bevington.

“The key point is that that is something we don’t have to rush into. People should not get too hung up on the fact there is no English coach on the staff at the moment.”

Capello will be unveiled at a news conference on Monday and will take up the role on 7 January.
