Scotland have recalled an Under-21 player to the senior squad for a Nations League match against Slovenia at Hampden.

Scotland manager Sebastian Pocognoli has recalled a 20-year-old Under-21 player to the senior squad ahead of the Nations League match against Slovenia at Hampden. The manager is working with one forced change to the team while also weighing up other tactical adjustments.

Pocognoli has stated he needs to address Scotland's striking options, with the team's goal-scoring drought drawing comparisons to a former Manchester United player's lean spell.
