Connor Barron in Contention for Scotland Euro 2024 Squad Selection

Connor Barron could be in line for a surprise call-up to the Scotland squad for Euro 2024.

Manager Steve Clarke is set to announce his 26-man squad next Wednesday, with the Aberdeen youngster reportedly being considered as a wildcard pick. Despite Aberdeen’s disappointing season, Barron’s performances have caught the eye of the coaching staff.

The Sun has reported that Barron’s chances of making the squad are high, with assistant coach John Carver scouting the player during a recent match. Barron’s contract with Aberdeen is set to expire soon, opening the door for a potential move to a new club. Serie A side Bologna is said to be interested in acquiring his services.

Although Barron has limited experience with the Scotland Under 21s, he is being touted as a possible inclusion in the senior team. Another young prospect, Ben Doak, is also being considered despite his recent injury. The versatile midfielder’s unique skill set could earn him a place in the squad.

While nothing is certain yet, Barron and Doak remain hopeful of securing a spot in the Euro 2024 squad.
