Scotland have called up Tommy Conway to their Euro 2024 squad after Ben Doak pulled out of the squad due to injury.

The Bristol City forward, who scored 10 goals in the Championship this season and is uncapped at senior international level, comes into the squad just 10 days before Scotland open Euro 2024 against host nation Germany.

Steve Clarke, who also lost another forward, Lyndon Dykes, to a pre-tournament injury last week, has until 11pm on Friday to trim his 27-player provisional squad by one name.

Scotland's 27-player provisional squad for Euro 2024

  • Goalkeepers: Zander Clark (Hearts), Craig Gordon (Hearts), Angus Gunn (Norwich), Liam Kelly (Motherwell)
  • Defenders: Liam Cooper (Leeds United), Grant Hanley (Norwich), Jack Hendry (Al-Ettifaq), Ross McCrorie (Bristol City), Scott McKenna (Copenhagen), Ryan Porteous (Watford), Anthony Ralston (Celtic), Andy Robertson (Liverpool), John Souttar (Rangers), Greg Taylor (Celtic), Kieran Tierney (Real Sociedad)
  • Midfielders: Stuart Armstrong (Southampton), Ryan Christie (Bournemouth), Billy Gilmour (Brighton), Ryan Jack (Rangers), Kenny McLean (Norwich), John McGinn (Aston Villa), Callum McGregor (Celtic), Scott McTominay (Manchester United)
  • Forwards: Che Adams (Southampton), Tommy Conway (Bristol City), James Forrest (Celtic), Lawrence Shankland (Hearts)

The Scotland boss initially called up uncapped Doak to his provisional squad but the Liverpool forward missed the warm-up friendly win over Gibraltar due to injury.

Clarke's side face Finland in their final warm-up match at Hampden Park on Friday before travelling over to Germany.
