"Steve Clarke has deployed several centre-forwards in his time in charge of the national team. Che Adams and now Kieron Bowie are playing in Serie A, George Hirst, Tommy Conway and Lyndon Dykes in the EFL, and Lawrence Shankland and Kevin Nisbet in the Scottish Premiership. Midfielders John McGinn and Scott McTominay have done the same but Dykes and Adams are the only strikers of the current crop to have racked up double figures in international football."
"One player banging in the goals for his club but yet to get the nod at international level is Robbie Ure, a 21-year-old striker from Glasgow who moved from Rangers to Anderlecht's youth academy in 2023. A rangy striker with an eye for goal, Ure played once for the Belgian giants' first team before signing for Swedish Allsvenskan outfit Sirius a year ago."
Steve Clarke has fielded multiple centre-forwards for Scotland, with only Lyndon Dykes and Che Adams reaching double figures in international goals. Robbie Ure, a 21-year-old Glasgow-born striker, moved from Rangers to Anderlecht's youth system in 2023, made one appearance for Anderlecht's first team, and signed for Swedish Allsvenskan side Sirius a year ago. In 30 appearances for Sirius he scored 11 goals and provided four assists. Ure earned five Scotland under-19 caps, scoring twice. Ure is reportedly pursuing a Ukrainian passport through his grandfather, which could make him eligible for Ukraine and complicate Scotland's chances.
