England coach Hodgson calm over contract situation

England coach Roy Hodgson is in no rush to discuss new terms.

Hodgson has admitted he is prepared to wait until after Euro 2016 before the FA make a decision on his future.

He said: "It's nice for him to say that, but 2016 is my focus. My concentration is 100% on that. There's plenty of time.

"I'm not desperate to have my future secured. I've had a long time behind me, and my future is a lot shorter than my past.

"I'm more than happy with our situation at the moment. If the day comes when a contract is discussed, I'll think about it then.

"I would be happy for it to be sorted at end of Euro 2016. I'm very happy with the support I get from the people in the Association, and to work with the players. I'm happy with that. At 67, let's be happy with that."
