Here’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Steve Clarke, Scotland head coach, has indicated openness to staying in the role beyond his current contract, with discussions considered by the Scottish FA after this summer’s World Cup in the USA. He has noted he’s waiting for the FA to outline future plans before making any decision, and he could also consider club management options if approached.[1]
- There has been ongoing media speculation about Clarke potentially being a candidate for other jobs (including Celtic) should the opportunity arise after the World Cup, but no formal offer or definite move has been reported as of the latest updates.[2][3]
Key context:
- Clarke’s contract runs through the 2026 World Cup cycle, with his future tied to conversations with the Scottish FA about the national team’s direction.[1]
- The World Cup in 2026 is a focal point for questions about squad selection, performance targets, and Clarke’s next steps, fueling discussions in Scottish sports media and among pundits.[3][1]
