Moscow: Fabio Capello has suggested he is close to leaving the c after going unpaid for almost five months.
The veteran Italian coach was last paid in June. He has previously played down the wage arrears but on Friday told Russian website Sportbox that he was "getting close to the limit" of his patience.
He added that he hoped the problem, caused by a cash shortage at the Russian Football Union, would be resolved soon.
Former England coach Capello, who reportedly earns $11 million a year in Russia, also said that money "really doesn't inspire me."
Capello is under contract with Russia until the country hosts the 2018 World Cup.
