Gilmour on course for Euro 2024 as Scotland name provisional squad

Billy Gilmour is on course for the Euros with Scotland.

The Albion midfielder was today named in Scotland's provisional 28-man squad.

He appears a certainty to go to Germany after an impressive Premier League season with the Seagulls.

The squad announcement offered confirmation that Premier League right-backs Aaron Hickey and Nathan Patterson will miss the tournament through injury along with Bologna midfielder Lewis Ferguson.

Scotland play friendlies against Gibraltar on June 3 and Finland four days later, with Steve Clarke set to cut two members of the current group by June 8 – the weekend before the Scots kick off the tournament against host nation Germany in Munich.
