FIFA WC: Clarke Steps Down As Head Coach After Scotland's Exit
Scottish FA Chief Executive: Scotland head coach Steve Clarke has stepped down from his role, ending his seven-year reign, after Croatia's win over Ghana confirmed that his team's exit from the FIFA World Cup 2026.
The 62-year-old led Scotland to its first men’s World Cup in 28 years – following back-to-back UEFA EURO qualifications - and started the campaign with a 1-0 victory against Haiti. Defeats to Morocco and Brazil consigned Scotland to third place in the group and elimination from the tournament.
However, despite agreeing a new four-year contract ahead of the 2026 finals kicking off, Clarke announced his resignation in the wake of a disappointing Group C campaign.
