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 for their upcoming UEFA Nations League matches against North Macedonia and Switzerland. Adams, who plays for Torino, missed manager Sebastien Pocognoli's first camp through injury but has returned after scoring four Serie A goals this season.

Boyd highlighted Adams's work rate and experience as vital for bringing out the best in midfielders John McGinn and Scott McTominay. While noting competition from forwards Oli McBurnie, Robbie Ure, and Kieron Bowie, Boyd argued that the 30-year-old offers "something different" to lead the attack.
