Leeds Utd’s Cooper recalled to Scotland squad

    Leeds United’s centre-half Liam Cooper has been recalled to the Scotland squad.

    Scotland head coach Gordon Strachan has called up the 26-year-old to be a part of the squad for next month's games against Slovakia and Slovenia, in the World Cup qualifiers.

    They need to win both matches to have a real chance of making it to the play-offs.

    United skipper Cooper was first included in a Scotland squad in March 2016 ahead of a match against Denmark but has yet to win his first full cap.
