Corberan ‘completely focused’ on West Brom
West Brom manager Carlos Corberan insisted he was “completely focused” on his job at the Hawthorns amid links to the vacant Leicester City manager role.
The Foxes parted company with Steve Cooper on Sunday after their 2-1 defeat to Chelsea, leaving them 16th in the Premier League table after 12 games of the season.
Several names have been linked with taking the reins at the King Power Stadium, including Graham Potter, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Gareth Southgate and Corberan.
But following West Brom’s stalemate with Sunderland on Tuesday, the Baggies’ eighth draw in their last nine Championship games, Corberan distanced himself from taking on the job.
"I can only say how focused I am at West Bromwich, how proud I feel to be the coach of this amazing club,” Corberan said.
"I understand that football always has speculation around, but I didn't even know that Leicester's coach was sacked, for example, until last night. There is so much speculation that can appear out of my control.
"I am completely focused in my work, my club, to get better form, to give fans better results and hopefully our fans don't feel any type of lack of respect because there are always things in the media we cannot control."
