Eddie Howe has said he is "committed" to Bournemouth but reiterated his belief that managing England is "the ultimate job."

Howe was one of the leading candidates to replace Roy Hodgson when he stepped down as England boss in the summer and is now being linked with the post again following Sam Allardyce's shock departure.

The 38-year-old has previously said he would relish the chance to coach England one day but insisted on Thursday morning that he has not heard from the Football Association, while reaffirming his commitment to Bournemouth.

Eddie Howe has said he remains happy at Bournemouth.
