Former Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is reportedly set to return to management with the much-anticipated Indian Premier League (IPL)-style football tournament, the Indian Super League.
The former Scottish footballer made a shock return to management with Liverpool in 2011, eleven years after leaving his post at Celtic, but left the Anfield giants at the end of the 2011-12 campaign.
According to the Mirror, Dalglish may take charge of one of the eight teams in the new Indian league that will combine home grown talent with leading international stars.
The league will start in January 2014 and go on till March of that year and other managers will include former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel and former Chelsea centre-back Marcel Desaill, the report added.
