Guangzhou Evergrande chief Marcello Lippi admits he'd like to return to coaching in Europe.
Lippi stepped aside at Guangzhou Evergrande this year.
"I made a decision and I am sticking to it: I will never again be the Coach of a club," Lippi told Radio Anch'io Sport.
"When my experience in China as technical director concludes, I will return to Italy. If there's a national team that I like with a serious plan that would allow me to do something I've never done before - such as taking part in the Euros - then I'd accept."
