Shankland says Hearts form gives him ‘good opportunity’ to be at Euros
Heart of Midlothian's Lawrence Shankland (right) celebrates scoring their side's second goal of the game before it is ruled out after a VAR check during the cinch Premiership match at Tynecastle Park, Edinburgh. Picture date: Saturday March 2, 2024.
FREE-SCORING Hearts forward Lawrence Shankland feels he is giving himself “a good opportunity” of going to this summer’s European Championships with Scotland.
The Jambos captain netted his 27th goal of the season to secure a 2-0 home win over Celtic on Sunday, with national team manager Steve Clarke and his assistant John Carver watching on from the Tynecastle stand.
Shankland was left out of the Scotland squad for the October double-header against Spain and France, and he was initially omitted for the most recent gathering in November before being given a belated call-up for the matches against Georgia and Norway after Che Adams withdrew.
