No roads lead to Rome for Pellegrini

Jesús Martínez - Manuel Pellegrini's agent – didn’t choose his words very carefully in an interview with Chilean newspaper 'El Mercurio', in fact he let a fair few things slip, including the fact that the coach will be deciding his future sometime in April or May. Other gems included the fact that Pellegrini has rejected another offer from Rome to be their coach. "We had a formal offer, but we turned it down flat. It was less than 15 days ago, but we rejected it because it’s mid-season," he said. His agent then continued with a list of the Malaga coach's suitors: "Chelsea and other clubs have contacted us, but through intermediaries, nothing official. Manuel would love to coach in the Premier League, but also in Germany, Italy and other major championships. There's still plenty of time to discuss what we will do next season," Martínez told the paper.
