Arsene Wenger, who has been linked with Milan, admits “I feel frustrated” not to be working after leaving Arsenal.
The Frenchman was 22 years in charge of the Gunners, but he left at the end of last season.
Earlier this month France Football reported that he was very close to agreeing a deal to take over the Rossoneri, but the man himself insisted it was “fake news”.
Though he hasn’t yet confirmed where his next job will be, the veteran is keen to get back into coaching.
“I don’t feel retired at all but I feel frustrated,” Wenger told BeIn Sports.
“I am basically a competitor and what I miss – honestly there are many things I don’t miss at all, like all of the stuff around the game you have to deal with.
“But of course, the day, the competition, the achievement that you can do together, sharing emotions, sharing competitions, ups and downs with others, of course you miss that because I spent my life in that.
“I’m not finished. People always want to put you in cases, like you are retired or you are finished. People want to finish you completely when you have got older.
“But as long as you have an appetite for life I will go on.
“One advantage I have from 35 years in the game is sharing what I know with other people and if you don’t do that then life is useless.
“You should not leave this world without trying to give something to the people.”
