Roy Hodgson not worried about contract beyond Euro 2016

England boss Roy Hodgson insists that he is not worried about his contract beyond Euro 2016.

England boss Roy Hodgson has said that he is content to wait until the conclusion of his side's Euro 2016 campaign to discover if he will be awarded a new contract.

The 67-year-old's current deal with the Three Lions expires after the tournament next year, although his side are in a strong position in their qualifying campaign, having won all six of their matches in Group E.

However, Hodgson is adamant that he has had no thoughts about his future as England manager beyond Euro 2016 in light of the impending draw for the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.

"As far as I'm concerned it's always been Euro 2016 that's the real focal point for me so I'm just happy to be here representing the FA," he told Sky Sports News.

"Whoever happens to be the manager going into the qualifying period for the next World Cup, I'm sure the team is going to be a good team and there's going to be some good players to work with and hopefully the team will qualify.

"All that I have said is that we will discuss my future at a later date. We didn't specify that that would be after the Euro's but if that's what the FA want to do then I'm perfectly happy with that. I'm very pleased to be looking forward to the next year and hopefully a good European Championship in France."

Hodgson became England manager in 2012 following Fabio Capello's resignation.
