"Spartak" club is claimed to be coached by Ranieri and Lippi © EuroFootball.com

Claudio Ranieri, associated with a club in Moscow, admits that he would be interested in the opportunity to work in Russia.

The former London "Chelsea" and "Roma" coach has not yet received an offer from the capital team, but he is mentioned among the candidates.

"If I received an offer, I would seriously consider it," said the Italian. "The most important thing is that the club should have a project for the future."

According to the press, besides Ranieri, another Italian Marcelo Lippi may take over the reins of "Spartak" after Valery Karpin was dismissed a few days ago.
