  "account": "Former Scotland boss Steve Clarke and Hannover manager Christian Titz are among a shortlist of seven candidates vying for the vacant managerial position at Aberdeen, according to Sky Sports. Burnley's Nicky Hayen, who was recently sacked, is also on the list. However, Clarke is reportedly content with his current life in London, while Falkirk manager John McGlynn prefers to stay with his current team.\n\nRangers striker Ryan Naderi, who has been in good form, is reportedly not interested in a January transfer to West Ham United, as reported by Football Insider. Meanwhile, Gvidas Gineitis, a midfielder for Torino, was reportedly disappointed by Celtic's failure to agree a transfer fee for him during the summer. However, he could potentially be available for around €10m in January.\n\nDundee is set to receive an additional fee from Stoke City following the return of former defender Luke Graham to the Scotland national team. The 22-year-old made his first appearance for his country on Friday. Meanwhile, Dundee United defender Michael Forbes is eager to make his mark in the Northern Ireland national team after impressing since joining Tannadice.",
