Phelan eyes future as manager
Manchester United assistant boss Mike Phelan has admitted he remains ambitious to be a manager - but has no intention of quitting Old Trafford just yet.
Burnley made a tentative approach for the 48-year-old following the dismissal of Brian Laws last year.
Phelan was not interested, although discussions did not actually reach as far as him.
However, there will come a day - maybe when Sir Alex Ferguson calls it a day - when he branches out on his own.
"There were tentative enquiries but it didn't get far," Phelan told the Lancashire Telegraph. "It didn't get to me. It got to the club and then it got knocked back.
"Everything has to go through the right channels and when it does you get the asked do you fancy it or not. Sometimes you get told that you don't fancy it. I have ambitions to be a manager. But I have unfinished business here. I am 48 and I still consider that young."
