Steve Clarke has named his Scotland squad to face Japan and the Ivory Coast, with three Rangers players making the cut.

The upcoming double header for Clarke's side provides the final opportunity to get a glimpse of his options for the national team, ahead of the country's participation in the World Cup this summer.

Included in the squad are three players contracted to Rangers, in the shape of goalkeeper Liam Kelly, centre-back John Souttar, and Findlay Curtis, who is currently on loan at fellow Premiership side Kilmarnock.

Additionally, former Rangers academy graduates Ross McCrorie (Bristol City) and Nathan Patterson (Everton) have also been named in Clarke's squad, as well as Billy Gilmour of Napoli.

Scotland face Japan at Hampden on Saturday, March 28, before travelling to face the Ivory Coast at Everton's Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool three days later.
