Scott McKenna injury update emerges ahead of crunch clash for Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest defender Scott McKenna is said to have withdrawn from international duty due to a knee strain.

The centre-back had played the full 90 minutes in each of Scotland’s victories over Ukraine and Republic of Ireland last week and showed no obvious sign of injury. But on Sunday he pulled out of the national squad, ahead of Tuesday night’s crucial Nations League match against Ukraine in Poland.

McKenna was suffering from a knee strain, according to The Herald. Kieran Tierney also withdrew from the squad at the same time, with Hearts duo Barrie McKay and Stephen Kinglsey called up by boss Steve Clarke to replace them.
