Scotland's manager, Steve Clarke, has made it clear that he's still interested in giving Elliot Anderson a chance to play for the national team. This comes after Anderson spent a couple of days with the Scottish squad last week, although he later had to withdraw.
Notably, England's manager, Gareth Southgate, has also shown interest in Anderson, praising the Newcastle midfielder. Southgate mentioned that his team would be looking into the situation. Additionally, Clarke didn't rule out the possibility of a move for Harvey Barnes.
Quoted by the Daily Mail, Clarke said: "We like the player as well so Elliot will still have that choice to make. When I come out of this camp I will look at what we have done, what we have had, what's occurred over this camp, we will do a debrief on it and then we will shape what we do from there."
When asked about Barnes, Clarke said: "Probably the same comment, to think about that after."
"We want the best players we can possibly get. If they are eligible for Scotland and they have a chance to play for us and they can improve the squad that I've got - which is not an easy thing to do."
"And I get all the story round it, because we are playing England you want to speak about Elliot, you want to speak about Harvey. I quite like speaking about the boys I have got because they have put us in a really good position and they deserve a lot of credit for that."
