Lewis Ferguson back in Bologna squad as Steve Clarke provided timely boost

Scotland international Lewis Ferguson is back in Bologna's squad after just under a month on the sidelines.  

The midfielder missed last summer's European Championships through an ACL injury.

Ferguson is back now, though, and on the bench for Bologna as they prepare to face Parma in Italy's Serie A this afternoon.

The 25-year-old's recovery provides a timely boost for Steve Clarke.

Scotland have a crucial UEFA Nations League playoff against Greece to contend with next month.

The first international break of 2025 isn't long away, with the Scots set to travel to Athens for the first leg in just under three weeks.

Greece then visit Hampden for the return tie on Sunday, March 23.

Ferguson will hope to get some minutes under his belt before then and provide Clarke with a viable option in the middle of the park.
