The car manufacturer has been the key driver behind plans to bring back the competition between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland for the first time since 1984.
Such a tournament would act as a key vehicle for Vauxhall, which is also on the brink of completing further sponsorship deals with the national teams of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
It is thought that the first year the tournament could realistically take place is 2013, although a similar tournament, the Carling Nations Cup, will start next month with the Republic of Ireland competing alongside Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Carling Nations Cup will be staged at Dublin’s new Aviva Stadium.
A Scottish Football Association spokesperson claimed the body has not held any talks yet with the Football Association in England, but told Sky Sports: “It is an interesting idea and we would obviously hope to be part of any discussions should the opportunity come along.”
