Fabio Capello threatens to quit Russia

Russia manager Fabio Capello has claimed that he will step down from his post if he does not receive the support of his employers.

The former England boss came under criticism for the country's exit at the group stages of this summer's World Cup, but the president of the Russian Football Union has said that he will be staying.

"When we went to the World Cup, everyone was happy," he told reporters. "Football hinges on moments. The ball - is it in the net or not?

"I work with enthusiasm. If I see support from those around me ... If that belief stops, don't worry, I will quit."

Russia are set to host the World Cup in 2018.
