The 60-year-old had previously enjoyed up and down success across a two-year spell with Tottenham, finishing fifth in his first season and 17th in his second but ultimately ending the club’s 17-year trophy drought by winning the Europa League final in his penultimate match in charge of the club.Notably, Postecoglou enjoyed two trophy-laden seasons in Scotland with Celtic, winning five out of six domestic trophies available in that period.He also has experience of managing internationally, having led his native Australia for four years, taking them to the 2014 World Cup and helping them qualify for the 2018 edition, while also leading the Socceroos to their first ever Asian Cup triumph in 2015.Next Scotland manager oddsAnge Postecoglou – 4/1Roberto Martinez – 8/1Neil McCann – 8/1John McGlynn – 8/1David Moyes – 8/1Steven Naismith – 8/1Alex Neil – 8/1Martin O’Neill – 10/1Steven Gerrard – 12/1Shaun Maloney – 12/114/1 BARAll odds correct at the time of writingView full list of next Scotand manager odds HEREThere’s a six-way tie for second place in talkSPORT BET’s odds, with perhaps the most notable of the names being Roberto Martinez and David Moyes.Martinez is currently managing the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes in North America, as he looks to win Portugal their first ever World Cup trophy just a year on from beating European champions Spain in the Nations League final in Munich.The Spaniard has previously managed Belgium to the semi finals of the World Cup in 2018, also leading their campaign in Qatar four years later, and would prove a huge coup for Scotland having coached so many of football’s biggest stars across the international stage before.Moyes is the only Scot currently managing in the Premier League, with the 63-year-old presently in his second spell in charge of Everton and about to start his 23rd season managing in England’s top flight.The Scot, who never represented his country as a player, has never managed in Scotland before, but is being mentioned to be a possible target for the Scottish FA to be the man to replace Clarke.Other names also priced at 8/1 to be named the Scotland manager ahead of the start of their Nations League campaign, which begins with a trip to Slovenia in September, are Neil McCann, who recently enjoyed a strong to finish to the season with Kilmarnock and John McGlynn, who has led Falkirk from League One to a top half finish Premiership finish in the space of three seasons.Current Millwall manager Alex Neil, who has previously managed Norwich in the Premier League, is also among the names touted, having missed out on the Lions’ first season in the top flight since 1990 by losing their play-off semi final despite their third place finish, the club’s highest since in 36 years.Scotland assistant manager Steven Naismith is also among the group of tied second-favourites, having taken the role back in August, his first job since his sacking as Hearts boss in September 2024.talkSPORT BET – Get up to £40 In Free Bets – CLAIM HERE*Stay up to date with all the latest World Cup tips & predictions, World Cup Match Previews and all the best World Cup Betting Offers and Free Bets in our dedicated betting hubCommercial content notice: Taking one of the bookmaker offers featured in this article may result in a payment to talkSPORT. 18+.
