Slaven Bilic insists he has no plans to quit his role as Croatia coach in order to take up the manager's job at West Ham or any other club.

The 39-year-old former Hammers and Everton centre-back has been linked with Alan Curbishley's post at Upton Park, with the East End outfit currently in the midst of a worrying slump in the Premier League.

However, Bilic insists his current task - leading Croatia to glory at Euro 2008 - is the only thing on his mind.

Bilic said: "I will never enjoy a job as much as I enjoy being in charge of Croatia, and I am very proud."

He added to BBC Sport: "I am flattered to see in the papers that there are some clubs interested in me.

"But on the other hand it gets on my nerves because I have my job to do, and I'm not thinking of leaving it. I'm 100 percent focused on my job with Croatia."
