Derby boss Wayne Rooney has played down talk of taking the Burnley job.

Rooney has been linked with the Clarets as a replacement for the sacked Sean Dyche.

"When you're linked with Premier League clubs, it is a compliment to me and the staff for what we have tried to do here (in Derby)," Rooney told Derby Telegragh.

"I have seen the rumours in some articles. But for me it is important to focus on the club in this league."

Rooney's agreement with Derby extends to the summer of 2023.
