Bayern Munich goal keeper Oliver Kahn is to begin his new life as a coach in Asia from next June and China would be the top choice, according to FIFA's official website.
"I am already 39 years old, and this year will be my last season," the former Germany captain said during an interview with FIFA.
"I will be coaching in Asia, where they need professional training for goalkeepers. I have a few friends in China, South Korea and Japan, and they will be happy if I go there."
Kahn played 86 games for Germany before quitting from national duty last year after the World Cup at his home soil, where he lost his place to Arsenal's Jens Lehmann. He was awarded as player of the tournament at the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea although Germany lost to Brazil in the final game.

Maybe if Iran wins Asian Cup Kahn will be impressed enough to train our national team goalkeepers
But it looks like that i am probably dreaming.
