The 22-year-old has been a standout for Brighton this season under Roberto de Zerbi with 36 games already under his belt.
Billy Gilmour turned up at the last Euros as Scotland’s baby-faced kid with zero pressure on his shoulders.
But it won’t faze the kid from Ardrossan. At the last Euros, he just wanted to sample it. This time, he’s ready to stamp his authority all over it. “The difference for me now is that I definitely feel more of a part of things. I’m still a youngster with a lot to learn. But I’ve come on from the last Euros when I expected just to be there for the experience.
“That’s my mindset for any game. I don’t go into it with any nerves or thinking, ‘I’m up against this player or that player’. I give it 100 percent and right now, I’m in a really good place.” He said: “With every player, you do your best when you have a manager who believes in you and trusts you. He trusts me to showcase what I’ve got. With Scotland, there’s no doubt Steve always has my back – he’s helped me a lot since coming through.
Gilmour has pretty much cemented his place in Clarke’s team for Scotland now as well. He looks certain to line up against the Dutch tonight and is in contention to start the mouth-watering Euro 2024 opener against the Germans in Munich on June 14.
