Jol to keep options open

Ex-Tottenham boss Martin Jol has left the door open for a return to management in England. Jol has already been linked with a move back to Holland with Ajax, but insists that staying in England is his first option.

He told AD Sportwereld: "Anything is possible. Another club in England, another foreign club or returning to Holland.

"I could step into a job where I can build the team up from the bottom or I could choose to go to a club with experienced players, because you can win prizes much more easily with those kind of players."

Jol, who has been replaced at White Hart Lane by former Sevilla boss Juande Ramos, believes Ajax could be a possible destination for him.

The 51-year-old was linked with the Amsterdam club earlier this month after Henk ten Cate left for Chelsea, but Adrie Koster has since been put in charge until the end of the season.

"I want to recharge my batteries first," he said in a telephone interview on TV station Het Gesprek. "But when something good crosses my path, I want to think about that.

"I have lived here (in London) for three years already and I find England a fantastic country.

"But if I get a good feeling about Ajax, I absolutely will think about that. I would like to become champions somewhere."
