Allan McGregor has been called up by Scotland manager Alex McLeish for the coming international break.

The next break of the 2017/18 campaign sees Scotland host Costa Rica at Hampden Park on March 23 with a second friendly arranged in Hungary four days later.

McLeish is beginning his second spell as his country’s international gaffer following the departure of Gordon Strachan and he’s certainly rung the changes to stamp his authority on the side with six new faces in the group.
