TEGUCIGALPA,
Honduras - Diego Maradona is in talks with the Honduras
soccer federation over becoming national team coach.
The federation said last month it opened talks with the
former Argentina captain, who would aim to lead the Central
American nation at the 2010 World Cup.
Honduras has only made it to one World Cup _ in Spain
in 1982.
"We would like to know Maradona's intentions so we
can analyze whether we are able economically to contract
him as a coach,'' federation president Rafael Leonardo
Callejas said, adding that the federation would make a
decision next week.
