Harry Redknapp and Fabio Capello on wanted list to coach Russia Roberto Mancini would also have been included on the eclectic list, had he not signed a new five-year deal with Manchester City, as the Russian Federation searches for a successor to Dick Advocaat who quit after the Euro 2012 disappointment to return to PSV Eindhoven. Also included were Pep Guardiola, Rafael Benitez, Marcello Lippi and Athletic Bilbao's Chilean coach Marcelo Bielsa along with seven Russian coaches - Anatoliy Byshovets, Valery Gazzaev, Andrei Kobelev, Yuri Krasnozhan, Valery Nepomnyashchy, Nikolai Pisarov and Yuri Semin. Whether any of the candidates, especially the non-Russian ones, would be interested remains to be seen. The Russians have spoken to Capello before and he is out-of-work after quitting England in February but he would not approach such a "beauty parade" approach to the recruitment. Guardiola is adamant that he will take a sabbatical after leaving Barcelona, despite Chelsea's attempts to persuade him to change his mind, and while Redknapp and Benitez - who recently held talks with Fiorentina - are looking for a new job they may not want to manage the Russian national side despite what would undoubtedly be a highly-lucrative salary. Redknapp was sacked by Tottenham Hotspur last month, having lost out to Roy Hodgson to succeed Capello as England manager, and has considered well-remunerated roles in the Middle East - as has Capello - while insisting that despite being 65-year-old he intends to return to management. It's highly unusual for a federation to publish a list of candidates it is considering - but is yet to approach - as the Russians promised to do and did so on Tuesday on the federation's website. In a statement the RFU said: "The Russian Football Union has officially informed that the organisation plans to consult, in full compliance with the rules of Fifa and Uefa, the appointment of the head coach of Russian national team, with the following experts.." It then listed all 13 names.
