England manager Fabio Capello is giving little indication of his future plans – refusing to even confirm whether he will return to Italy after Euro 2012.

The former AC Milan and Real Madrid manager was presented with a special critics’ award at the annual Oscar del Calcio awards in Milan which honour the best player, coach, club and referee in the previous Serie A season.

Capello last month insisted he wished to remain with England until the end of their Euro 2012 campaign.

However on Monday night he did not reveal what he expects to do following the tournament in Poland and Ukraine.

He said: “Before taking a decision we wait for the end of the European Championship. Then let’s see if I go back to Italy, as a TV commentator or as a coach.”

He added: “I am well in England, I am fine but the Italian anthem is always a strong emotion.”

Looking towards this summer’s competition, Capello has labelled Spain as favourites despite England having beaten the World Cup winners in a recent friendly.

He said: “We played them in a friendly and they made a great impression on me with incredible possession of the ball.

“Many are looking for an antidote – even (Jose) Mourinho at Real Madrid – but cannot find it.”
