"What would have to happen for me to be recalled by England?" Clearly, the boss would have to go," Pietersen was quoted as saying in Evening Standard.
He added: "Clarke would have to go, and I've been hearing that could happen in the next few months.
"That's all hearsay, you never know. If there is a change at the top, there is potential, but we will wait and see."
The 34-year-old temperamental batsman, whose autobiography was launched, was sacked by the England and Wales Cricket Board eight months ago after a spate of run-ins with the establishment and fellow team-mates.
In the book titled 'KP: The Autobiography', Pietersen has been highly critical of some of his former team-mates and former team director Andy Flower.
Pietersen is equivocal about where the power lies at ECB. "Giles pulls a lot of strings. In terms of cricket, I believe Andy Flower pulls a lot of strings too. He has Giles Clarke in his pocket," Pietersen said.
The autobiography includes Pietersen's account of a culture of "bullying" in the dressing room under Flower's regime and orchestrated largely by Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann and Matt Prior.
He also believed that certain former England team-mates were involved with a Twitter account called KP Genius which sought to poke fun at the batsman.
