Wales boss Chris Coleman has dismissed suggestions he could become the next England manager.
Former Fulham and Coventry boss Coleman has guided his country to the semi-finals of Euro 2016, while England's embarrassment at losing to Iceland and failing to get beyond the last 16 has left the Football Association looking for a successor to Roy Hodgson.
Coleman signed a new two-year deal on the eve of the tournament to include Wales' 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign.
His Wales salary, believed to be in the region of £220,000 per year, is dwarfed by the reported £3.5m salary the FA paid Hodgson towards the end of his four-year reign.
Chief executive Martin Glenn has said the FA will go for "the best person, not necessarily the best Englishman" for the job, but Coleman - in charge of the first British team to reach the last four of a major tournament in 20 years - has laughed off suggestions he could be a candidate.
"It's not something I think I would get offered, but I would never rule it in to be honest," said Coleman.
"Roy has lost his job so England will search again, but it's not something that would ever enter my thinking.
"I'm a Welshman through and through and, at international football, it was only Wales, and it would only ever be Wales."
As well as managing Fulham and Coventry, Coleman has also worked abroad in Spain and Greece.
He had ill-fated spells at Real Sociedad and Greek club Larissa, but those experiences have not totally dissuaded him from managing abroad again sometime in the future.
"I think my next job after Wales, whenever that is, will be abroad," added Coleman.
"I quite fancy the chance of going abroad again, because I think that's my best chance of managing in the Champions League.
"When you're talking about Champions League football in the Premier League, you're talking about the top clubs - the massive clubs.
"It's not something I think I'd get linked with, so my best chance of managing Champions League football would be abroad. It's an ambition of mine.
"But to manage another country? No, I wouldn't. That's not something I would consider."
