“Samuel Eto’o has had two great seasons in Turkey, scoring 40 goals,” Gardi told The Sun.

"I don't rule out the possibility of him renewing his contract for another season.

"Then he aims to finish his career in Major League Soccer.

"But once he has hung up his boots, he wants to become a coach.

"It is his desire to manage Inter Milan some day," he concluded.
