It is reported he has hired 39-year-old Andrei Talalev as his assistant manager.
Talalev also has an experience in Italian football, as he was Treviso’s striker in 1997-98.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Russian Federation is in financial trouble, so a sponsor will be brought in to help finance Capello’s contract.
That is likely to be Anzhi owner Suleyman Kerimov or Zenit chief Alexei Miller.
