Adams pulled out of the nations League squad for Poland and Portugal clashes then played in Serie A the following weekend
Che Adams has broken his silence on his controversial Scotland no-show and insisted he had to pull out.
But he has bulldozed through the conspiracy theory – saying if he had been fit, he would have been with Steve Clarke’s men. Adams, speaking in an exclusive interview with Record Sport, said: “That is something I need to clear up. After the Venezia game, I felt my hip. I had an issue with my hip flexor. It was an injury where if I had joined up with Scotland I wouldn’t have been of any use to anyone, if I am being honest.
“Lyndon Dykes has done a great job for the national team and Lawrence Shankland had an amazing campaign last season. These guys all deserve playing time as well.”
