Euro 2024: Ross McCrorie ‘ready’ for Scotland opportunity

McCrorie missed the first half of the season through injury, not making his first Bristol City debut until January.

He went on to make 22 appearances and is adamant he has improved since leaving Aberdeen last summer.

“The Championship is a really tough league – the games come thick and fast,” he said.

“I’ve really enjoyed it and my quality has gone up. There’s nothing better than challenging yourself against top players.”

McCrorie has been in Scotland squads before and has 20 caps at under-21 level.

“I grew up through the age groups with Scotland,” he added. “It’s the pinnacle of your career to play for the national team.

“During my rehab it was always in the back of my mind. I wanted to get back as quick as possible to see if I could get a sniff of being in the Scotland squad

“It’s a nice feeling getting the call after all the hard work I’ve put in.”
