Norwich boss Chris Hughton is not interested in succeeding succeed Giovanni Trappatoni as Republic of Ireland manager. "I am manager of Norwich, I am extremely happy here. We spent and invested more this summer than we ever have done. I have had support from the board here," he said.
"I understand my name has been mentioned along with other previous players for Ireland. It is absolutely just speculation.
"I have a group of supporters who are fanatical and want this team to do well and I have the same challenges here as the supporters and the players have. I am incredibly happy here.
"There has been no official approach. We are a club I would like to think which is going in the right direction.
"There will be some very good names mentioned. I don't know which way they will go but there won't be any shortage of candidates."
