Capello keen to stay on as Russia coach

Russia manager Fabio Capello has said he will discuss the details of a new contract on Tuesday with Russian sports minister Vitaly Mutko.  ‘I was flattered by the fans’ desire to see me at the helm until the 2018 World Cup. But I think we shouldn’t make plans too early because it’s a very long term,’ Capello told the daily Sport Express.  ‘Currently I want to focus on my team’s immediate problems.’ The much-travelled, 67-year-old Italian coach said that nevertheless he fully intended to stay on in Russia until 2018 although the finer details of a new deal needed to be looked at.  ‘Money is not the key question. That is just one of the points of discussion,’ he said.  ‘There are plenty of points that we shall discuss because it’s a long-term contract. I’d like to stay in Russia if we manage to work out a joint point of view. Its been a good journey so far,’ added he.
