Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has stated his commitment to the club after being linked with the vacant England role.
Howe is among the favourites to be named the next Three Lions boss following the departure of Gareth Southgate after the defeat to Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
But asked about the rumours, Howe insists he is only focused on Newcastle and is happy at the club.
“It’s been a strange one for me because I’ve been absolutely cut off from it,” he told Sky Sports.
“Fortunately I’m out here [in Germany]. So it’s only through a mobile phone or someone telling me something that you hear about it.
“My commitment to Newcastle is unwavering and it has been since I came to the football club. As long as I have certain things for me – as in I’m happy, I’m allowed to work in the way I need to work in order to get the best out of me and I feel supported – then that will never change.
“England is not important at all. It’s all about Newcastle United Football Club. I’m so proud to be the manager. I’ve loved every single second of managing the club since I’ve been here, I feel passionately about bringing success here long-term.
“I feel I have such a special relationship with [the Newcastle fans]. I can’t thank them enough for how they’ve welcomed me to the football club, how they have then supported the football club and me in good and bad moments. I’m fiercely determined to win a trophy for them, I hope we’re able to achieve our objectives together.
“Whenever you’re linked with another job, I’ve had it before in my career, it’s always a positive because it means you’re hopefully doing well with your club that you’re working for. But my only priority and thought has ever been Newcastle United.
“Nothing will ever unsettle me from my job. That’s always been the way I work. I’m very tunnel vision, I have been all summer and will continue to be.”
