Former Newcastle United manager Steve Bruce is lining up his next job in the game.

The ex-Manchester United centre half is interested in becoming the next South Korea head coach.

Bruce, no longer seen as a manager capable of working in the Premier League, may want to look at international management to further his career.

Per The Mirror, Bruce is now refreshed and eager to explore what is out there after taking a break from the game.

He last worked at West Bromwich Albion, who sacked him when they were 22nd in the Championship.

South Korea last week sacked Jurgen Klinsmann after they only reached the semi finals of the Asia Cup.

“Steve is aware of the interest from South Korea and it's a position that definitely appeals to him," a source stated.

"He is high on the list of a number of clubs in Saudi Arabia as well so he is assessing his options and will be having conversations over the coming weeks.

“Steve is keen to get back into management and sees managing overseas as a good next step in his career."
