Socrates mulls Cuba job


Former Brazil star Socrates is mulling over an offer from the Cuban authorities to take on the post of national coach, the former Corinthians midfield stalwart said on Friday.
The Cubans are struggling in the ongoing Gold Cup and are coming off a 5-0 thrashing by Mexico and Socrates is seen as the man who can lift sagging morale.
"We are going to talk and I'll see what they think. If I can help I will," added the 54-year-old.
He added that were he to take the job he would expect to earn a normal worker's wage.
