Barely a month since he was sacked as Barcelona coach, Ernesto Valverde has begun pondering his next management job, but he fancies going somewhere off the beaten track.
Valverde, who won two LaLiga titles with Barca, is enjoying a rare break in a career which has lasted 18 years and taken him to some of Spain's top clubs such as Valencia and Athletic Bilbao as well as two stints at Greek giants Olympiakos.
'People ask me sometimes 'How about the Premier League?' and I say 'Well actually I'd like to go to Australia',' the 56-year-old Valverde said at the Bilbao International Football Summit on Thursday.
'A career in football does not last forever and sometimes you think you have to take the opportunity to live in strange places.'
