​Burnley boss Dyche dismisses Leicester links

Burnley boss Sean Dyche says speculation linking him with the Leicester job has no substance.

But while Dyche admits he is flattered to be linked to another post, there is no foundation to the stories and his approach remains firmly on Burnley matters.

"First of all, I don't want any manager to lose their job, I'm in the business and it's very tough. There's always empathy in that situation.

"It's not the first time I've been linked. In a way you're flattered by these links because it's some form of recognition of the work that's been done by the players, by the staff and by myself at this club.

"But they are paper stories. There's no story from me. I've had it before and that's the way it is."

He added: "I'm not aware of any approach from any club during my time here."
