It's been announced that Fabio Capello has been named as head coach of Chinese Super League club Jiangsu Suning on an 18-month contract.

The ex-England and Russia coach becomes the third Italian coach currently working in China following of Marcello Lippi and Fabio Cannavaro.

Capello is replacing South Korea's Choi Yong-Soom, who resigned from Suning last week.

Jiangsu ranks 15th in the CSL after 12 rounds, second from the bottom and struggling to break away from the relegation zone.
