Scotland want to offer Newcastle United young gun Elliot Anderson the chance to push for a place at the next European Championships.
Despite making a superb start to the season for the Magpies, playing a starring role at Tranmere in the League Cup, and putting in some bright cameo displays in the Premier League, Anderson was not selected by England Under-21s for games against Italy and Germany at the end of the month.
Anderson has been called up to the Scotland Under-21s, who he qualifies to play for through his grandparents, for a double header against Northern Ireland. But Scotland boss Steve Clarke is well aware of Anderson's progress on the senior stage at Newcastle.
