Jurgen Klinsmann has moved to dispel rumours linking him with the England manager's job.

The German, who is currently in charge of the US national team, insisted there are 'no truth' to the claims following Sam Allardyce's shock departure on Tuesday evening.

Allardyce was the subject of an undercover sting by the Daily Telegraph in which he was caught on camera giving advice to people purporting as businessmen on how to circumvent the FA's rules regarding third-party ownership of players.

The former Bolton and Sunderland boss was also seen apparently mocking Roy Hodgson's speech impediment, and criticising the role of Gary Neville at England's ill-fated Euro 2016 appearance.

Despite being among the bookies' choices to replace Allardyce, Klinsmann insists his 'entire focus' is on the USA's World Cup qualifier against Mexico next month.

“It means a lot to us to play Mexico in Columbus," he said. "Columbus is for us what Azteca Stadium is for them.

"It’s a game where emotions will go through the roof, and we need to have our crowd behind us bringing their voice against our biggest rival.

"We know they will. Columbus will rock.”
