McBurnie and seven uncapped players named in Scotland squad
Summary

Oli McBurnie makes his return to the Scotland squad after five years, joining seven uncapped players in new head coach Sebastien Pocognoli's first selection. McBurnie, who has 16 caps, is joined by defenders Luis Binks, Colby Donovan, and Luke Graham, as well as goalkeeper Jon McCracken, among others. The squad reflects a shift towards a younger group following the tenure of Pocognoli's predecessor, Steve Clarke. The team will open their Nations League B campaign against Slovenia on September 26 and face Switzerland three days later.
