Pocognoli frontrunner for Scotland job

Former Monaco head coach Sebastien Pocognoli is the frontrunner for the Scotland men's national team job.

It is understood the 39-year-old, who guided Union Saint-Gilloise to the Belgian league title last year, is the SFA's leading candidate to replace Steve Clarke.

Pocognoli is currently a free agent after leaving Monaco in June. During his playing career, he represented West Brom and spent a season on loan at Brighton 10 years ago.
