Kenny Miller's hopes of landing the Maccabi Tel Aviv job look set to depend on whether he guides the club to silverware at the Israeli Cup Final this week.

The former Old Firm and Scotland striker took over as caretaker boss after ex-Celtic boss Ronny Deila quit following accusations of sexually harassing a taxi driver in Israel.

Miller has stated he would love to get the job on a permanent basis, but accepts it comes down to results, ahead of their big game this week against Hapoel Beer Sheva.

Miller said: "I have made no secret that if the club offered me something here, I would love to stay on.

"I have really enjoyed my time here and the challenge of taking over as coach.

"But I fully accept, it's up to the club. They might have their own plans for the future.

"All I can do is to try and win as many games as possible.

"We have a big game coming up and I know the players will give their all. I could not have asked any more of them since I took over."
