Korea spurned as McCarthy committed to Wolves

WOLVES manager Mick McCarthy has ruled himself out of becoming the new coach of South Korea and has committed his future to the Coca-Cola Championship club.

The former Republic of Ireland boss McCarthy was named on a two-man shortlist by KFA president Chung Mong-joon for the job, along with former Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier.

But McCarthy said: “I was very flattered to be contacted, and to be considered a candidate alongside someone of the calibre of Gerard Houllier.
