Roy Hodgson has admitted that he is still unsure whether or not he will remain in charge of England beyond next year's Euro 2016 tournament.
The 67-year-old signed a four-year contract with the Football Association in 2012, leading the Three Lions to the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine, as well as last year's World Cup.
England recorded their worst performance since 1958 at the showpiece event last summer, which led to strong questions over whether Hodgson was the right man to lead the national side into their next major tournament.
However, having won four games from four in qualifying for France 2016, it has been claimed that the experienced manager could be given the nod to continue until the end of the next World Cup in three years' time.
Asked by reporters if he wished to stay in charge beyond the next campaign, he said: "What I really want to do is to make certain is that I do the job I'm currently contracted to do to the best of my ability and hope there are no slip-ups.
"I hope when we go to France - and I believe we will qualify - we will give a good account of ourselves. I don't need to look beyond that at the moment. I am happy with my life and where we are as a team. The memory of the World Cup will always live with us but I hope to some extent we are putting it behind us.
"We'll see about [going to another World Cup]. It is a magnificent job being England manager and I'm really pleased to have the chance to do it. My employees seem comfortable with me and that's enough for me. At this stage of my career I don't look any further. I don't want to outstay my welcome, that's for sure, so we'll see what happens."
Hodgson named his latest 24-man squad earlier today for the upcoming fixtures against Lithuania and Italy.
