Pedro Martinez Losa says leading Scotland to Euro 2025 would be “the highlight” of his career.
The first leg of Scotland’s play-off against Hungary is on 25 October and although the manager has the likes of Emma Watson and Caroline Weir returning to his squad, he will be without captain Rachel Corsie.
If they emerge victorious over the two legs against Hungary, they will face either Montegro or Finland for a spot at next summer’s Euros in Switzerland.
“Obviously there’s four games that have to be played at the end and we don’t know the outcome yet but I’m totally convinced these players can make it,” Martinez Losa said.
“For me it will mean probably one of the highlights of my career in terms of football, in terms of transmitting all my knowledge, my experience to a group of players, but not just a group of players but to inspire a nation and I can’t wait to play the Euros to be honest.
“Our conversations with the players were always, if we qualify, I think we can be a much better team. I think we can be a team that continues the development, we could express well on the pitch and we could compete at a good level but that’s the ultimate objective.”
