Steve Clarke leaves Scotland after 2026 World Cup exit and the end of a defining seven-year national era

Steve Clarke has stepped down as Scotland head coach after the team’s exit from the 2026 World Cup. Scotland collected three points in Group C, but a win over Haiti and defeats to Morocco and Brazil were not enough to reach the knockout stage among the best third-placed teams. His departure ends a seven-year spell that restored Scotland to major tournaments and a first World Cup since 1998
