"There is a possibility that I will coach at another World Cup, not with a national team from South America, but from Asia. It could happen in Russia [next year] or in 2022."

Scolari, who is currently in Brazil to visit his family, said he has "no regrets" about the 2017 World Cup, insisting he would not do anything different if he had the chance to relive the experience.

On the subject of Chinese football, Scolari had nothing but praise.

The Chinese Super League has attracted a raft of high-profile players in the past year, including Argentinian forward Carlos Tevez and Brazilian playmaker Oscar. According to Scolari, investment in the game at all levels in China will bear fruit in the near future.

"[China] is taking great steps to develop the game," he said. "Football is now on the school curriculum. Schools are building more football pitches with the help of the government. In the future there will be a lot of kids in China who have a bright future in football."
