Steve Clarke ‘proud to continue’ after signing new Scotland contract to 2030
-
Manager’s deal announced shortly before World Cup
-
Clarke will have served for 11 years if he sees out contract
Scotland’s manager, Steve Clarke, has signed a four-year contract extension, meaning he will remain in place until the end of the country’s 2030 World Cup campaign. The fresh, improved terms are no surprise but the length of deal will raise eyebrows given Clarke has been in position since 2019. Should he complete the term, he will become Scotland men’s longest-serving manager.
Clarke had initially been publicly confident he would step away after this summer’s World Cup. The 62-year-old has taken Scotland to three tournaments from a possible four, with this World Cup a first since 1998. More recently, Clarke spoke of remaining in post.
