AVB tight-lipped on future, says agent

“The only thing he is thinking about right now is going on holiday.” Aren’t we all?

ANDRE VILLAS-BOAS’ agent has revealed that his client has no intention of even thinking about football, after his sacking from Chelsea.

The 34-year-old Portuguese manager was axed by the Stamford Bridge outfit earlier this month, and he has refused to comment on either his dismissal or indeed his future plans.

Villas-Boas has been heavily linked with Serie A strugglers Inter Milan, who have replaced Claudio Ranieri with Andrea Stramaccioni until the end of the season. But the former Porto boss’ representative Carlos Goncalves has insisted Villas-Boas wants to get as far away from football as possible.

“He is packing his bags right now to go on holiday with his family abroad,” Goncalves told Expresso. ”He is refusing to think about football until the end of the season. ”The only thing he is thinking about right now is going on holiday.”

Villas-Boas established himself as one of the most promising young coaches in the game by leading Porto to Europa League glory last season, while also clinching the Liga Sagres and Portuguese Supercup.
