However, he has said consistently since taking the reins almost four weeks ago that his plans and ideas must fit in with those of the club if he is to agree a long-term contract.
The 38-year-old has also accepted that Swansea’s hierarchy have been considering other managerial options.
“The club will be talking to a lot of people and rightly so, because this is a football club that a lot of people would like to manage,” Sheehan added.
“I have had the privilege of doing so for 11 games and it’s been wonderful.
“Even when I was assistant manager, I enjoyed my work here. I love living here, my family love living here and whatever happens, I have a lot of affection for this football club.”
Sheehan remains under contract as an assistant head coach, a role he took in the summer of 2023 having previously coached at Luton Town and Southampton.
