(Reuters) - Burnley manager Sean Dyche has dismissed speculation linking him with the Leicester City vacancy as "paper stories", saying he is only focused on his side's Premier League trip to leaders Manchester City on Saturday.

Dyche, the third-longest serving current Premier League manager, has been among the favourites along with Wales boss Chris Coleman to take over from Craig Shakespeare, who was sacked by Leicester on Tuesday.
