Former Crystal Palace boss Sam Allardyce is interested in the USA job.

Allardyce is currently out of work after deciding to leave Crystal Palace at the end of last season.

And though he has been quick to rule himself out of the running to succeed Gordon Strachan in charge of Scotland, the idea of working in America has not been rejected.

ESPN says those close to Allardyce have suggested he would be keen to look at the prospect of returning to international management in the US.

The country are looking for a new boss following Bruce Arena's resignation after they failed to qualify for the World Cup in Russia next summer.
