Roy Hodgson reportedly has no plans to leave football despite a health scare forcing him to leave Crystal Palace.
The 76-year-old former England manager was taken ill on the training ground earlier this month and stepped down as Palace manager a few days later to be replaced by Oliver Glasner.
But, according to The Sun, Hodgson wants to continue working within the game, potentially in a consultancy role.
Hodgson’s reputation remains high in the coaching world and he is expected to receive job offers, with some potentially coming from abroad.
He coached in a number of countries earlier in his career including Sweden, Switzerland and Italy.

Hodgson played a role in picking the Palace team for their Premier League game at Everton on Monday night before his medical drama, which came amid reports he was about to be sacked.
Ahead of the game at Goodison Park, Palace announced Hodgson had stepped down so they could ‘bring forward their plans to appoint a new manager.’
Glasner, the former Wolfsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt coach, was then named as his successor and watched the 1-1 draw with Everton from the stands.
The Austrian, 49, then oversaw a 3-0 win over Burnley in his first match in charge on Saturday.
Chris Richards, Jordan Ayew and Jean-Philippe Mateta were on target at Selhurst Park as Palace climbed to 13th in the table, eight points clear of the relegation zone.
