Steve Bruce: Hull boss holds England manager talks

Steve Bruce: Hull boss holds England manager talks
20.07.2016 12:01
Hull boss Steve Bruce was interviewed by the Football Association on Monday about the England manager's job.

Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce has also been interviewed and is favourite to succeed Roy Hodgson, who quit after England lost to Iceland at Euro 2016.

Hull said Bruce, 55, has "held informal discussions" but "no official approach has been received from the FA".

"It's got to be the prime job that any Englishman could ever want to have," Bruce told Sky Sports.

"I'm highly flattered to be even considered. I put my case across and let's hope it was successful."

Bruce added he was up against "a big pal of mine" in Allardyce, and that whoever gets the job needs to take away the players' "fear in tournaments" after a run of just one win in seven matches at the 2014 World Cup and Euro 2016.

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe and USA coach Jurgen Klinsmann have also been linked with the role.
