Gareth Southgate has no interest in becoming the next England football manager, according to BBC Sport.
Roy Hodgson resigned as head coach of the team on Monday night after a dismal display against lowly Iceland, which led to the squad's knockout from the Euro 2016 competition.
Former Middlesborough and current England under 21 coach Southgate had been touted as either an interim or long-term option by the Football Association but it appears he does not want the job in any respect. The 45-year-old has not been offered the role or spoken to the Football Association since the weekend.
The FA are also looking at various foreign coaches to fill the position
Chief executive of the FA Martin Glenn said the wants a new manager in place for the side's first World Cup qualifier game against Slovakia in December, even if it means a temporary appointment while they search for a long-term successor to Hodgson.
The FA are also looking at various foreign coaches to fill the position, including Arsene Wenger and Laurent Blanc, but West Ham coach Slaven Bilic has ruled himself out of the race, according to the club.
