Sean Dyche insists he is focused on Burnley despite continued speculation surrounding Everton vacancy: 'I'm just getting on with what I do here'

Burnley boss Sean Dyche hasn't been approached by Everton about their vacant managerial position but has not followed Sam Allardyce's lead by ruling himself out.

The Toffees have yet to appoint Ronald Koeman's successor since his sacking three-and-a-half weeks ago, with caretaker David Unsworth preparing for a fifth game at the helm this weekend.

Allardyce and Dyche were two of the first names in the frame when the Dutchman was dismissed, but with other targets emerging - including Watford's Marco Silva - the former England boss Allardyce publicly withdrew from contention.

Dyche, who is preparing for Swansea's trip to Turf Moor on Saturday, was keen not to speak about the Toffees preferring to insist he is focused on his current position.
