Scotland’s national football team has announced its squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Denmark and Belarus, featuring five players from Italy`s top-tier Serie A league. Among the notable inclusions are midfielders Scott McTominay and Lewis Ferguson.
Manager Steve Clarke has selected this contingent of five Serie A-based talents to represent Scotland in their crucial World Cup qualification fixtures scheduled for the coming week.
Scotland Squad Features Key Serie A Talent
The five players joining the squad include midfielders Scott McTominay and Billy Gilmour from Napoli, Lewis Ferguson of Bologna, and Lennon Miller from Udinese, alongside Torino`s striker Ché Adams.
Both McTominay and Gilmour recently kicked off their 2025-26 Serie A season, making appearances in Napoli`s convincing 2-0 victory against Sassuolo on Saturday. Notably, McTominay opened the scoring for the new Serie A campaign, delivering a powerful header in the initial half of the match.
