Stewart Regan, the SFA chief executive, revealed in Luxembourg last night that the governing body had now received a letter from the former manager's legal representatives. The SFA have agreed to pay Levein the £700,000 he is due for the remaining 20 months of his deal, but will do so in monthly instalments of £35,000 rather than a single lump sum. His SFA contract has not been terminated, which is understood to mean the monthly payments would immediately stop if Levein signed another contract to become a manager anywhere else before the summer of 2014.
