England bosses have denied making any approach for Wallabies coach Michael Cheika.
Reports in Australia claimed the Rugby Football Union (RFU) had sounded out Cheika about replacing Stuart Lancaster as England head coach, with president Jason Leonard supposedly having contacted the Wallabies boss.
A Rugby Football Union spokesman rejected the reports, however, insisting: "There has been no contact."
Cheika is contracted to the Australia Rugby Union (ARU) until the end of 2017.
