Scotland striker gets ‘something different’ backing in selection battle

Former Scotland striker Kris Boyd has backed Che Adams to return to the national team's starting lineup. Adams missed manager Sebastien Pocognoli’s opening camp due to injury but has rejoined the squad for upcoming Nations League matches against North Macedonia and Switzerland. Boyd stated that Adams offers "something different" compared to competitors Oli McBurnie, Robbie Ure, and Kieron Bowie.

Adams has scored four Serie A goals for Torino this season and holds 13 goals in 50 international appearances. Boyd highlighted that Adams' presence historically aided players like Scott McTominay and John McGinn, noting the importance of balancing experienced options alongside the squad's developing young attackers.
