Avram Grant<\/a>‘s dismissal.<\/p>\nThe Hammers were relegated on the penultimate game of the Premier League season and Grant was sacked in the aftermath, but Hoddle has distanced himself from rumours touting him as a potential successor.<\/p>\n
He said: “At the moment I don’t think the timing is right, put it that way.”<\/p>\n
The former England boss has spent much of his recent time working on The Glenn Hoddle Academy, a venture aimed at giving young footballers a second chance after being released by their clubs.<\/p>\n
Despite his work with his academy, Hoddle is not ruling out an eventual return to management.<\/p>\n
He continued: “I’ve never said that I have finished with football management at any level. That is something that might be for the future and I didn’t replace that with my football academy.<\/p>\n
“The guys needed something of a second chance to get back into the game and we’re proving we are doing that quite reasonably well.”<\/p>\n
Hoddle added that managing a national side is a particularly tempting proposition for him but reiterated that his academy was his most pressing concern at the moment.<\/p>\n
“In the future, I’ve always said international football would be interesting for me after doing it with England,” he continued.<\/p>\n
“And who is to say at some stage in some way, shape or form in the future going back into mainstream management is not something I am saying no to.”<\/p>\n
