World Cup-winning former New Zealand coach Graham Henry has hinted that he would be open to a role in European rugby, albeit for a limited time.
Henry said that he would be willing to spend 10 weeks away from New Zealand per year, sparking speculation that he is in the running for the England job recently vacated by Martin Johnson.
"I want an involvement in the game, mainly in an advisory capacity," the 65-year-old told the Western Mail.
"Hopefully some people think that might be beneficial to their particular situation. I'd like to spend some time in Europe but I want to live in New Zealand. Our kids are there and we have five grandchildren. I think it is important we are there.
"I can see myself being in this part of the world for perhaps 10 weeks a year.
"I'd like to be able to contribute and enjoy that contribution. Hopefully it may be beneficial to a club in this part of the world."
Northampton Saints coach Jim Mallinder is currently favourite to take over the England top job.
