Euro 2024: Ben Doak withdrawn from Scotland squad due to injury

Ben Doak has been withdrawn from Scotland’s squad for Euro 2024 due to injury.

Liverpool forward Doak last month joined Andy Robertson in being included in Steve Clarke’s provisional 28-man group for the tournament, which begins on Friday June 14 when Scotland take on hosts Germany in Munich.

However, the 18-year-old – who has not played since sustaining a knee injury in December – was not involved in his country’s friendly win over Gibraltar on Monday and 24 hours later the Scottish FA confirmed that he will miss the European Championship.

A statement published on social media read: “Sadly, Ben Doak has been withdrawn from the #EURO2024 squad through injury. Ben – we know we’ll see you entertaining crowds at Hampden in a Scotland shirt soon.”
