Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers reportedly has no interest in talking to Tottenham Hotspur about replacing Jose Mourinho in the hotseat.

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has no interest in taking the reins at Tottenham Hotspur, according to a report.

The Northern Irishman is thought to be on Daniel Levy's list of candidates to replace Jose Mourinho, who lost his job in the dugout last Monday - six days before the EFL Cup final against Manchester City.

Julian Nagelsmann was also linked with the Spurs job, but the RB Leipzig boss is confirmed to be taking over at Bayern Munich, and Levy is supposedly set to lose out on another one of his shortlisted contenders.

According to Sky Sports News, Rodgers is not considering a switch to North London and is enjoying life at Leicester, who sit 10 points above Spurs in the Premier League table.

The report adds that Rodgers - whose Leicester deal does not expire until 2025 - believes that the Foxes will challenge consistently for Europe over the coming years, and he is excited by the potential of his young players at the King Power Stadium.

Ajax manager Erik ten Hag has also emerged as a reported target for Tottenham, who placed 29-year-old Ryan Mason in interim charge following Mourinho's sacking.
