Steve Clarke confirms desire to manage Scotland 'at some stage'

Steve Clarke has ambitions to manage Scotland at "some stage" but refused to be drawn on the possibility of becoming the successor to Alex McLeish.

The Scottish Football Association is on the hunt for a new national team boss after McLeish was sacked on Thursday.

Kilmarnock manager Clarke is among the favourites to be his replacement and ahead of the Ladbrokes Premiership clash with Aberdeen on Saturday, he was asked if he has a desire to manage the national team.

“I don't speculate, there is no point in doing that. I know how football works. I am fully focused on this job here.”

He said: "Yes, at some stage. Whether it is now or not is a matter for you guys to talk about and speculate.

"I am fully focused on finishing the season well here at Kilmarnock.

"I don't speculate, there is no point in doing that. I know how football works. I am fully focused on this job here."

Clarke confirmed he has had no contact from the SFA and did say that he would "at this moment in time, probably" prefer working day-to-day at club level rather than with an international side.

The former West Brom manager also stated that any decision he makes about his future at the end of the season would probably involve "personal life against professional life, that's the biggest decision I have to make".
