West Bromwich Albion boss Roy Hodgson says he would accept the England job if offered.

Hodgson's name has been linked to the role, even though Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is the overwhelming favourite to be appointed Fabio Capello's successor.

"I don't know that (the England manager's job) is an ambition as such," the former Liverpool boss told talkSPORT.

"It would be an honour of course if ever the offer came my way, because it's the pinnacle of success in a way and certainly of coaching success if you are ever invited to manage your own country."

Asked if he would take the job if offered it, Hodgson said: "Of course, I think that anyone would."
