I’m still not ready to go back.“I thought yes but I don’t think at the moment I will come back.“I’m more open now than a year ago to talk about that but I cannot tell you that in the next two or three days I will go into management again. “I took a little bit of distance and I enjoyed it. I worked for 35 years without any interruptions, so I think I deserved a little rest.” While seemingly ruling out a role at St James’ Park, Wenger has backtracked on previous claims that he could not imagine working at a domestic rival to Arsenal.Having spent so long in the Premier League, the Frenchman is not closing the door completely on another position in England. He added: “Well I would prefer to try another country, although my preferred time was in England because the Premier League is the place to be at the moment.“But for me it is very difficult because I was for so long at the same club. But why not?“I still need a bit of time to pass and then maybe make the decision.”</blockquote>
