Swansea boss Rodgers admits interest in Northern Ireland job

Swansea City boss Brendan Rodgers has admitted interest in the Northern Ireland job.

But Rodgers says now is not the right time to take the post.

"Managing Northern Ireland is something I want to do at some point in my career for sure," he told the South Wales Evening Post.

"It's my country. It's where I'm from, it's where I grew up and it's a country that I love.

"But hopefully that chance will come towards the end of my career, and I hope that won't be for many years yet. I have got too much energy to be an international manager at the moment. Right now it's not something for me."
