The SFA have named Michael McArdle interim Head Coach of Scotland's women for February's UEFA Nations League fixtures.
The dark blues take on Austria and the Netherlands next month in the first international break since previous boss Pedro Martinez Losa departed.
The Spaniard led Scotland to a Euro 2025 play-off final against Finland, only to lose 2-0 on aggregate and miss out on a place at this summer's tournament.

"The recruitment process for a permanent Head Coach continues."
McArdle initially joined the SFA from St. Mirren in 2023, departing his position as Head of Academy Coaching at the Paisley side.
He now takes charge of the women's national side, hoping to get their upcoming Nations League campaign off to the perfect start.
