Former Norwich City assistant manager Jim Duffy insists he is ready for a fresh challenge after resigning as boss of Brechin City.
The former Dundee and Hibernian boss is looking for a return to full-time management after a 16-month spell at Glebe Park that included two unsuccessful play-off campaigns.
Duffy, pictured, who was number two to Peter Grant at Carrow Road before becoming caretaker manager on Grant's departure in late 2007, is a possible target for the vacancy at Morton.
Duffy said: "My reasons for leaving are quite simple as I felt the timing was right for both myself and the club. I have a good relationship with Brechin chairman Ken Ferguson and this allows us both time to move on.
"If I had waited too long to make this decision then it would have hindered the new manager of Brechin and his planning for next season.
"I haven't applied for any positions and I haven't spoken to any other clubs as my focus has been on helping Brechin during the play-offs.
