The 26-year-old is drawing plenty of rumours early on in the summer transfer window, with The Telegraph reporting that Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham are all interested in signing the £100m-rated midfielder.

'Clarke to drop Shankland for Christie or McLean'

If we rewind 36 years to 16 June 1990 and the Italian city of Genoa, Stuart McCall was busy scoring to help Scotland secure a 2-1 win over Sweden. The former midfielder jokes that he "was always deadly from a yard out" and ultimately that victory wasn't enough to ensure Scotland progressed to the knock-out stage, but up until this weekend, it was their last win at a World Cup finals. Now the 62 year-old is assistant to Paul Heckingbottom at Preston North End, but he's also enjoying absorbing all the action from the United States, Canada and Mexico.
