Gianluca Vialli believes that both Inter and Juventus will be interested in acquiring the services of Fabio Capello following his shock resignation as England boss on Wednesday.
Nerazzurri president Massimo Moratti has already moved to dismiss speculation that Capello will imminently replace Claudio Ranieri as coach.
However, Vialli believes that Capello will either end up at San Siro or will return to Turin.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if Juventus offered him a role as a director," the former Chelsea boss told Sky Sport Italia.
"I’d also expect Moratti to call him for the bench after Claudio Ranieri. He certainly has plenty of options."
Capello stood down after clashing with the Football Association over its decision to strip John Terry of the captaincy of the national team after the centre-half's racism trial was put back until July 9.
Vialli, for his part, says he can understand why the former Juventus and AC Milan boss felt his authority had been undermined.
“The FA should’ve told Capello its decision first, then gone to the media," the former Bianconeri forward argued. "It’s only normal that he got angry.
"It’s also normal, I should add, that the Association accepted his resignation."
Vialli, like most other pundits, believes that Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp will eventually be installed as Capello's successor.
“I think the new England manager has already been chosen," the former Italy international mused. "It’ll be Stuart Pearce until the end of Euro 2012, then Harry Redknapp.
"He represents English football of a certain type, but I doubt the FA would settle for having Redknapp part-time, considering his work with Tottenham.”
Vialli has plenty of experience of the English game, having first played for and then managed Chelsea before later taking up a coaching role with Watford.
