Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has dismissed suggestions that he is in line to become the next Manchester United boss.

On the back of six defeats in 12 matches, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's long-term future at Old Trafford has been a constant topic of debate for a number of weeks.

Reports have suggested that Rodgers is in line to replace the Norwegian at United, some claims going as far as saying that the Northern Irishman has been house-hunting in the area.

However, Rodgers has criticised the ongoing talk, as well as stating that there is no truth to any of the speculation regarding himself.

Speaking to reporters at a press conference, Rodgers said: "Firstly, it's really disrespectful for you [a reporter] to ask the question when there is a manager in place - a good manager and a good man - who's working at the club.

"And secondly, I can't really comment on it because it's something that's not real.

"I'm here as the Leicester City manager; proud to be here, privileged to be here and fully committed to the players, the club and the ownership. And that's about it, really. All the other noise around that, is something we can't control."

Rodgers has won 65 of his 129 matches in charge of the Foxes, his sole piece of silverware being last season's FA Cup.
