Udinese boss Francesco Guidolin has admitted he may leave the club in the summer.
The 56-year-old coach just guided the Zebrette to the Champions League for the second consecutive season but says he needs a break and is exhausted.
“I am happy because we managed an historic achievement at the end of an extraordinary campaign,” he told Sky Sport Italia.
“I compliment all our antagonists and thank my players. Nobody expected this and that perhaps made it even better than last year. The credit goes to my players, who overcame even the difficult moments.
“However, I am very tired and need to rest. I think I’m going to need a long rest, as I am under a lot of strain and I don’t know if my health can hold up to another season like this with over 50 matches.
“In the next few days I will talk to the directors, because I feel the need to go off grid and stop for a while, so I don’t know if I’ll be ready for the start of July.
“Could I stay in Udine as technical director working with a young Coach? I would be ready for that role.”
