Former Rangers boss Stuart McCall distances himself from the vacant Dundee United position, saying that he is entirely focused on his role with Scotland.

Scotland assistant manager Stuart McCall has distanced himself from reports linking him with the vacant manager's job at Dundee United.

Jackie McNamara was relieved of his duties at United following the 2-1 defeat to St Johnstone on Saturday, but McCall has insisted that his focus is purely on his position with the national team.

"I'm solely focused on the Scotland v Poland game," the 51-year-old told BBC Scotland's Sportscene.

"It goes without saying, Dundee United are one of the bigger clubs in Scotland - really good fan base.

"I'm sure they'll have a lot of good candidates, it's a terrific club but at this moment in time I'm just focused on the international scene."

McCall has previously managed Bradford City, Motherwell and most recently, Rangers.
