Slaven Bilic has revealed he is interested in becoming Scotland boss.
The former West Ham and Croatia manager has been without a job since February when he was sacked by Saudi side Al-Ittihad.
And although he will not formally apply to succeed Alex McLeish , the 50-year-old is up for the national team role, reports the Daily Mail.
A source close to the man who led Croatia to the Euro 2008 quarter-finals said: "Of course he is missing football and in interested in the Scotland job.
"He won’t apply for the job but if the SFA contact him, that is different."
Bilic is 25-1 to fill the Hampden hotseat. Scot Gemmil is odds-on favourite at 5-6, with Steve Clarke 2-1.
The Kilmarnock boss on Friday dropped a hint he would like to become Scotland boss.
He said: "Whoever is lucky enough to get the job, it should be an honour for them."
