Scotland squad announcement LIVE as Steve Clarke unveils picks for Holland and Northern Ireland friendlies

It's Scotland squad announcement day as international football returns to the agenda.

Steve Clarke and the national team have a huge couple of months on the horizon with Euro 2024 coming thick and fast. The Dark Blues open the tournament against hosts Germany before clashes with Switzerland and Hungary after a brilliant qualifying campaign. But before focus shifts to the summer, four friendlies are to be played with a double-header against the Netherlands and Northern Ireland this month kicking things off.

The Tartan Army will be keeping a keen eye on who is included in the squad with a look towards the finals. What we do know is Celtic skipper Callum McGregor is out until after the international break so won't be included. Craig Gordon was in action for Hearts in the Scottish Cup win over Morton last night in front of his national team boss – but will he have done enough for a squad spot?

Lawrence Shankland has been banging in the goals for Hearts and he will be hoping he gets the chance to show that once again on the international stage. He rescued a point in the 93rd minute against Georgia on the road back in November from the bench but his club form will have him hoping he can play a more prominent role in these two games.

Who do you think will get the shout?
