Sebastien Pocognoli to Announce First Scotland Squad Ahead of Nations League Matches

Sebastien Pocognoli is set to announce his first squad as the head coach of Scotland on Tuesday, prior to their Nations League opener against Slovenia on September 26. Following this match, Scotland will host Switzerland and travel to North Macedonia before facing Slovenia again on October 6.

The new coach faces significant decisions regarding player selection, especially with injuries affecting key players. Notably, Angus Gunn, who has recently joined San Jose Earthquakes, is among the goalkeeping options, while Craig Gordon has retired and Liam Kelly has not played this season.

Other players like Grant Hanley and Anthony Ralston may also be at risk of exclusion as Pocognoli considers fresh talent, including Billy Gilmour, who is returning from injury. The squad's composition will reflect Pocognoli's vision as he aims to improve Scotland's performance in the upcoming matches.
