The Football Association are given permission by West Bromwich Albion to speak to manager Roy Hodgson over the vacant England job.

The Football Association have been given permission by West Bromwich Albion to speak to manager Roy Hodgson over the vacant England job.

The 64-year-old's current contract at the Hawthorns is due to expire at the end of the season.

The news comes after FA Chairman David Bernstein had made an official approach to Baggies counterpart Jeremy Peace.

"I'm grateful to Jeremy and all at West Bromwich Albion for their co-operation in allowing us to approach Roy, who I have since spoken with," Bernstein said in an FA statement.

"Roy is the only manager we have approached and we remain on course to make an appointment within the timescale we set out soon after Fabio Capello's departure.

"Further conversations will now take place with Roy and my Club England colleagues before any further announcements can be made."

Previous coach Capello resigned in February following four years in charge of the team.
