Steve Clarke names Scotland squad for Cyprus and England clashes

Scotland manager Steve Clarke has named his 25-man squad for next month's international double header.

Scotland will face Cyprus in Larnaca in a crucial UEFA EURO 2024 qualifier on Friday, September 8, before taking on England in a special 150th Anniversary Heritage Match at Hampden on Tuesday, September 12.

Scotland secured back-to-back victories over Norway and Georgia in the last camp in June, to maintain a 100 per cent record in Group A.

Scott McKenna makes a welcome return after missing the past two camps through injury, while Che Adams is also back from injury to bolster the forward line.

There is also a first call-up at senior level for Newcastle United attacking midfielder Elliot Anderson, who has previously represented the Under-21s.
