Football, son Capello: Dad spoke to Inter, but remains England coach

Fabio Capello's son, the lawyer Pierfilippo, confirmed to the tabloid "The Sun" that his father was actually contacted by Inter, but that he will remain coach of the English national team.

According to reports from Adnkronos, Fabio Capello has spoken to Inter, but will remain England coach. Pierfilippo Capello says it, son of the current technical commissioner of the selection of the Three Lions. To the tabloid "The Sun", Capello jr confirmed the contacts between his father and the Nerazzurri club. "Yes, but he will stay with the Football Association," says Pierfilippo Capello, a lawyer who legally assists his father. According to The Sun, the England coach would have received an offer from Milan for a three-year contract for a total salary of 22,5 million euros net. "There was a concrete and very attractive offer," an anonymous source told the paper. ”Capello was tempted, but he decided to stay faithful and meet the deadline of the contract” which binds the coach to the Football Association until 2012. ”He realized he was indebted to England – adds the source- . Maybe Inter will come forward again in a year”. In the meantime, the Football Association merely let it be known: "We have not been contacted by Inter, we think Fabio will stay".
