Steve Clarke has stepped down from his role as Scotland's head coach, the move announced as breaking news following the team's elimination from the World Cup.
Clarke had been in charge of the national side since 2019, a lengthy tenure by the standards of international football management.
His departure comes directly after Scotland's exit at the group stage of the tournament, bringing an era under his leadership to a close.
Scotland went out after failing to secure one of the best third-place finishes. Croatia's victory over Ghana confirmed that the Scots would not progress to the knockout rounds.
It had been a milestone campaign in one sense, as this was Scotland's first appearance at a World Cup since 1998. They opened with a win over Haiti.
That opening victory was followed by defeats to Morocco and Brazil, which ultimately left Scotland dependent on results elsewhere to reach the next stage.
Clarke's exit now leaves Scotland searching for a new head coach, with the decision coming in the immediate aftermath of the tournament disappointment.
