Scotland’s World Cup Squad: Decoding Steve Clarke’s 55-Player List Revelation
Scotland manager Steve Clarke disclosed that FIFA requires a provisional squad list of up to 55 players for the World Cup. While this initially raised eyebrows, it’s a standard practice involving a ‘fitness for duty’ check with clubs, not a public announcement of a massive pool of potential players.
Clarke intends to name a stand-by list, ensuring players remain prepared for late call-ups.
