Scotland manager Steve Clarke is reportedly on the verge of signing a contract extension with the Scottish Football Association (SFA). According to The Times, talks are at an advanced stage for a new deal that would keep Clarke in charge until Euro 2028, which Scotland will co-host.
Clarke's current contract expires at the end of the World Cup, and no agreement had been reached prior to this development. However, discussions are ongoing as Clarke prepares to lead Scotland into his third major tournament. He is set to announce his squad for the upcoming World Cup in North America.
Clarke stated that his future will be clarified before the team departs for their pre-tournament training camp in Fort Lauderdale next Sunday. When asked about the contract situation, he said: 'I don't think this is the day for speaking about me... I am pretty sure it will be (sorted before boarding the plane). Hopefully, that would be the plan.'
Scotland will face Haiti, Morocco, and Brazil in Group C of the World Cup next month. The SFA has not yet commented on the reported contract talks.
