Desailly wants to coach Ghana

LONDON (Reuters) -- France captain Marcel Desailly says he would like to coach in Ghana after he retires from playing.
The Chelsea center back, who has been capped 103 times by France, was born in the Ghanaian capital Accra.
"I have many projects in TV, in radio and other things, but my project at the beginning will be the national team coach of Ghana," the 34-year-old told Chelsea TV in comments carried by the London Evening Standard newspaper on Wednesday.
"I would like to give back all the experience that I have. I am sitting the diploma to become a manager but I will rest a bit for a few years when I finish because soccer takes a lot out of you."
Desailly is currently sidelined by a hip injury and missed France's 6-0 Euro 2004 qualifying win over Malta last Saturday.
He was also not considered for Wednesday's game against Israel but hopes to return for Chelsea's Premier League match at Sunderland on Saturday.
