SEAN Dyche believes the power of English football will stop most domestic managers from working abroad - after admitting he is unlikely to consider a spell on the continent at any stage in own his career.

Dyche went head-to-head against one of the English managers to enjoy success overseas on Saturday, with Roy Hodgson having had spells in Sweden with Malmo before a season in Serie A with Inter Milan.

But the Clarets chief doesn't expect his own career to take him down that route, with the Premier League now considered one of the 'most powerful' in world football and that attraction keeping homegrown managers here.

"For football education would you go abroad? Yes. For recognition? Not really," Dyche said.

"I think you’d get recognised more here for doing well across the Championship or Premier League, than you would for doing well wherever, like Roy Hodgson at Malmo.

"You’d get recognised, but not in the same way as winning the Championship, or going through the system in the Premier League and doing well, like a coach, assistant or a manager.

"But the Premier League is mostly thought of as one of the most powerful leagues in the world, so if you’re in that, why are you going to go away from that, other than pure education?

"Then you’ve got to get back in, and they want someone who’s been in the Premier League.

"You have to have made your mark to go away and come back and be recognised, someone who’s gone there to learn and if a job comes up here, they’ll go back in."

Dyche believes managers may have been tempted abroad for varying reasons two decades ago, but said the growth of the Premier League and the stature it is now held in had changed that.

"Off the top of my head, Terry Venables did well at Barcelona, Toshack really well at Sociedad, Steve McClaren did very well in Holland...my point is, I don’t know the stats, people might say there’s not many British managers abroad, but how many were there historically?," the Clarets chief said.

"The other thing is I think English football at the moment is very powerful.

"In the past it’s been varying places.

"English football through the Premier League era has enhanced it, and it’s very powerful.

"The knock on effect is the Championship is very powerful, so a lot of managers want to be in the Championship, let alone the Premier League.

"If you’re an English/British manager, why do you want to go somewhere else when it’s happening here as much as anywhere?"

While the language barrier is one Dyche believes could be closed easily enough, he doesn't necessarily see the benefit of working abroad to further a coach's education.

"There’s language as well, obviously they could add that in, and it’s time consuming, but the courses could carry a language, even if you work here," he said.

"But I don’t buy into the idea there’s less education. There’s only so much you can learn, but there was the debate that the Italian and Spanish pro-licences were for more hours, but the point is you still have to go out and do it.

"There’s the expense, of course. The Premier League is well paid for managers, coaches, staff as well as players, so that’s another draw."
