Arsenal legend Campbell admits coaching on his agenda

Arsenal legend Sol Campbell admits coaching is on his agenda.

The 39-year-old maintains he is keen to one day return to football, but only at the right time.

He said: "I know I have to do the (coaching) badges. I know I am not ready now, but I know I am going to have to do it.

"I am very tactical and like breaking teams down in my head, like a chess board. I love characters as well.

"Football is a beautiful game. I have had a fantastic time playing. "As a manager, if I really go for it and am really committed, I will really go for it.

"I want to win everything I did not win as a player. I want to be ready.

"Sometimes I think players go from having a long career, straight into management and they are burned out.

"It is full on and maybe I am not ready for that yet. I know that, when I am ready, I have got everything in place.

"If I have to go abroad to start things, I will do that."
