Former Cardiff City boss Malky Mackay has revealed that he is hoping to make a quick return to management.

The ex-Bluebirds coach lost his job after falling out with club owner Vincent Tan, but insists that he has learned from the experience.

"I really enjoyed testing myself against the best coaches in the world," he told Sky Sports News. "We had some tough games and there's times during those games that you really see the difference in world class players.

"Other times we competed really well and we managed to beat the champions, which Cardiff should be proud of."

He added: "There are various teams at the moment out there who don't have a manager and like everyone else I just have to wait and see. But I'm looking to get back into management as quickly as possible."

Mackay has been linked with the vacant managerial post at Norwich City.
