Swansea City caretaker boss Leon Britton insists he does not want the permanent job ahead of Crystal Palace

Leon Britton has stressed he is not looking to become Paul Clement's full-time successor at Swansea.

After sacking boss Clement on Wednesday night, the Swans have made long-serving midfielder Britton, who last month became a player-coach at the Welsh club, caretaker manager and he will be in charge for Saturday's Premier League home match against Crystal Palace.

The likes of Slaven Bilic, Ronald Koeman and Tony Pulis have been linked with the vacancy.
