PAOLO DI CANIO has revealed he snubbed the chance to join Roberto Mancini's coaching set-up with the Saudi Arabia national team.<\/p>\n

The former Manchester City title-winning manager stepped down as Italy boss in August just two years after lifting the Euros.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Mancini reportedly put pen to paper on a\u00a0staggering \u00a377million\u00a0deal that runs for three years.<\/p>\n

The 58-year-old approached Di Canio to offer him a role as a coach but the West Ham legend turned it down.<\/p>\n

He explained to La Stampa why he rejected the job, saying: "I didn't just say no to oil money, because it would have been an important experience in an environment that wants to grow and establish itself, like I do myself.<\/p>\n

"Mancini didn't offer me a minor role, he wanted me as a second coach on the pitch to train and improve the players.<\/p>\n

"His courtship made me proud, especially given that we aren't particularly close: a few games of padel, a chat and not a lot more, so if he thought about me, it's because he believes in my ideas and my work.<\/p>\n

"I want to thank him, it wasn't easy to decide. I contemplated it for a long time and in the end I chose to follow my heart."<\/p>\n

Di Canio has not been a coach since managing Sunderland in 2013.<\/p>\n

He guided the club to Premier League safety before being reportedly sacked due to a training ground bust-up with his players just five games into the new season.<\/p>\n

The controversial Italian also managed Swindon two years previously, firing them to the League Two title.<\/p>\n

Di Canio played for Lazio, Juventus, Napoli, AC Milan and Celtic during his playing days.<\/p>\n

But he best remembered for his time at West Ham, where he scored 51 goals in 141 games.<\/p>\n

Saudi Arabia are without a win in their four matches since Mancini took to the dugout. <\/p>\n
