London: Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has refused to completely rule out accepting a potential offer to take charge of England at the end of the season.


Wenger has been linked with the England job following the Football Association’s decision to part company with Sam Allardyce on Tuesday. Quizzed on possible England interest after Wednesday’s 2-0 Champions League win over Basel, Wenger stopped short of confirming he would snub an FA approach.


Asked if he was flattered to be linked with the job, Wenger said: “Of course, but my priority has always been Arsenal and until the end of this season I am here.

“I’m completely focused on this club. Nothing will change on that. It (Allardyce leaving) was a huge surprise. Who could have predicted that 48 hours ago? Nobody,” Wenger said.
