Jon McLaughlin earns Scotland recall for Nations League triple header

Kieran Tierney and Ryan Fraser are also back in the squad

Published 13th Sep 2022

Scotland boss Steve Clarke has named his squad for their upcoming Nations League triple header.

Rangers goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin replaces club teammate Robby McCrorie who was a late stand-in during the summer.

Kieran Tierney is also back in the squad after missing the last international camp through injury.

That will prove to be a boost for Steve Clarke as captain Andy Robertson has been ruled out of all three matches.

Newcastle winger Ryan Fraser has also been selected despite his international future becoming unclear last year.

The 28-year old was spotted training for his club after pulling out of a Scotland squad he has been selected for.

At the time, Clarke said the player "could have his work cut out to be back in the squad".

Ryan Jack, Kenny McLean and Ryan Porteous also return to the national team set up for the two games against Ukraine and one against Ireland.

John Souttar, Ross Stewart and Liam Cooper miss out through injury while there is no place for Lewis Ferguson and Allan Campbell.
