<\/p>\nRodgers has been linked with the role at the Emirates, after Unai Emery was fired on Friday.<\/p>\n
The former Liverpool manager has transformed Leicester into title contenders this season and victory against Everton on Sunday, extended their winning run in the Premier League to six games.<\/p>\n
They are currently in second place behind Liverpool.<\/p>\n
It has been speculated that there\u2019s a \u00a314million exit clause in Rodgers\u2019 contract, should any club want to poach the ex-Celtic boss. And Rodgers confirmed such a clause is in place.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere probably is in most manager\u2019s contracts,\u201d Rodgers told reporters at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s all hypothetical, all these types of situations.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think for me in this moment we\u2019ve had a brilliant win today, we came back really, really well. My focus is very much with Leicester.<\/p>\n
\u201cI made a change eight or nine months ago, I came into here and I\u2019ve been so happy since I\u2019ve come into here and I\u2019ve been so happy to come into here to work with the players, we still have a lot of work to do.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo like I said, most manager\u2019s contracts will have something in that but my only concentration is Leicester.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been very fortunate in my career to work with some brilliant clubs and some great institutions. This was an ambition to come to here and to help the club arrive in the top six.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor us, everything has been great since we worked together. We know there will be some bumps along the way. For me, my ambition at this very moment in time is to help this club.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very happy in doing that, there\u2019s great, great potential here at Leicester City in order to push on in the next few years.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
