Scotland defender Scott McKenna is expected to be available for the team's second group match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup against Morocco on Friday, June 19, 2026. McKenna missed Scotland's opening match due to a calf injury.
The 29-year-old center-back, who plays for Las Palmas, has been a key figure in Scotland's defense. His return is a boost for the squad as they face Morocco in what is a crucial match for their World Cup campaign.
Scotland's first match of the tournament ended in a 1-1 draw against Portugal on June 14, 2026. The team is looking to secure a win against Morocco to improve their chances of advancing to the knockout stages.
McKenna's recovery was confirmed by the Scottish Football Association on June 17, 2026. He has been training with the squad and is likely to start against Morocco.
