England captain Steven Gerrard insists he needs time before making a decision over his international future.
The Liverpool midfielder, 34, will mull over whether to announce his international retirement after Roy Hodgson's side crashed out of the World Cup at the group stage.
He said: "T here's no truth that I'll be making any announcement within a week. I think I need more time.
"I am still hurting very bad, I'm broken from what's gone on over the last couple of weeks. I need to clear my head before I make that big decision."
