Sebastien Pocognoli has named just one Celtic player in his latest squad selection as Scotland manager.

Kieran Tierney, who has started each of the Hoops’ last nine matches but pulled out of the nation’s first camp under Pocognoli, has regardless been given the nod again.

However, Colby Donovan has not enjoyed the same fortune. The defender has been dropped from the squad having been given a first call-up last time out, though he didn’t make a single matchday squad in the four-match camp.

Anthony Ralston remains unpicked amid a spell frozen out under Martin O’Neill, and there’s no room either for Dane Murray, Luke McCowan or James Forrest.

Donovan has been a standout performer for Celtic this season, and was handed a major contract extension as a reward for his performances last week.

He said after being handed the new contract: “You know how hard it is to come through as a young player,” he said.

“Sometimes you’ll get your opportunity and maybe it’ll never happen again. It’s about taking that chance and not looking back and that’s what I’ve been doing. I’m still doing that now. You’re never destined a place at Celtic.

“It’s such a big club, you’re expected to win every game so I just try and do everything that I can for the club and for my team-mates and hopefully put on a good performance.”
