Liverpool teenager Ben Doak included in provisional squad with fellow uncapped player Ross McCrorie
James Forrest and Ryan Jack also included in 28-man pool, with two being cut before the finals
And here's a final reminder of the 28-man provisional squad, which will be cut down to 26 for the finals in Germany.
That'll do us, thanks for joining.
You'll get more reaction and analysis on our dedicated Scotland page throughout the day.
Cheerio.
Before we head off, here's a reminder of what we've got to look forward to in a month...
14 June: Germany (Munich)
19 June: Switzerland (Cologne)
23 June: Hungary (Stuttgart)
And the big one...
14 July: The final.
Kenny: Well done James Forrest. Totally deserved. He's the form player in that 28.
Stephen: Getting Ben Doak is a great call! Hopefully he can get back to full fitness and get some time in the two friendlies. Even having a player like that to come on as a sub is a huge boost. I can't get my head around Ryan Jack though. And looks like we'll never see Ryan Gauld, which is a massive shame.
James: Strong selection, tough group but confident they can get out of it, backing James Forrest to be the surprise player.

The Scotland boss was very relaxed in that media conference, he looked like he was even enjoying it!
Spoke well and to the point. The message feels like: 'Bring it on'.
Image source, SNSScotland head coach Steve Clarke: "I think they're capable [of reaching the knockouts]. It's a good group of players.
"Our aim is to be as competitive as we can be in all the matches. If we play to the best of our abilities then we could be - could be - the first Scottish team to come out the group stages.
"That would be a magnificent achievement. That'll be the aim."
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke: "You know me, I get over excited, don't I? It's great. I'm really pleased I can sit here this afternoon and put out those names.
"It makes the tournament feel a little bit more real. Since March it's been a bit of a drag. A lot of bad news, not much good news. The March camp, two defeats.
"That's still in the back of my mind. I just want to get the boys together again and work towards the friendly matches and into the tournament, which I'm sure will take care of itself."

Asked about whether there was anything in rumours about Newcastle full-back Tino Livramento getting a shock call up, Scotland head coach Steve Clarke replies: "Tino's an England Under-21 international. He qualifies for England, Scotland, Portugal.
"At the moment he's chosen England so that's the way it is."

Steve Clarke is making a big play on experience within his squad when talking about his squad selection.
Seventeen players in his provisional squad for Germany were in his last Euros squad, so they have that big tournament experience.
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke: "It didn't really go down to the wire. Obviously with the injuries, there are probably four. Jacob Brown obviously picked up an injury and couldn't make it. Lewis Ferguson would have been part of the squad.
"So you're losing four players from the front of your mind and you're starting to go into the back of your mind and think: 'Okay, how do you replace them?'. Going from 23 to 26 probably made it more difficult to be honest.
"You're trying to balance the squad and get the right people. The squad's not just about who plays, it's about who doesn't play. They're just as big a part of the squad moving forward. They control the harmony, if you like."
Image source, SNSSteve Clarke is often a man who holds his cards close to this chest in front of the media.
But that stuff on James Forrest might be the most glowingly I've heard him speak about a player.
High, high, high praise indeed.
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke: "James, where do you start? If ever there's an example to young players on how to conduct yourself if things aren't going well at your club. James epitomises that.
"He's had a fantastic finish to the season. It'll be nice to see him again. He's worked really hard. You're looking and thinking: 'Wow, James is back to where he was three or four years ago.' That was something I couldn't overlook."
Image source, SNSScotland head coach Steve Clarke: "Experience. Ryan's been an important part of the squad in my time as head coach. He missed the last Euros.
"He hasn't had the best end to the season for Rangers but he's been fit the past two or three weeks. He deserves to be there. He's a midfield player that's a little bit different."
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke: "I lost my two first-choice right backs/right wing-backs.
"So looking down Ross had a really difficult time when he first went to Bristol City when he had a serious problem.
"He got back in the team in the second half of the season, acquitted himself well and got some minutes under his belt.
"He's another one who has been in squads before but doesn't have a cap. So it's a chance to have a look at Ross as well and see how he's doing."
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke: "Ben has a lot of talent, he catches your eye, the pace is something we haven't got in abundance.
"It's a little bit different, he's young and has a lot to learn in the game. It just seemed like the right opportunity with the squad going from 23 to 26."
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke: "The make up of the squad and the number of players - I've probably got half a dozen who are not playing regularly or coming back form injury. So it's just to go a little bit bigger and give us more breathing space.
"We can take a look at them over our 10 days together in the pre-camp. That was the thinking behind the 28.
"26 will go to the Euros and two will miss out. That's unfortunate but such is the life of a head coach, you've got to make those decisions.
"One or two are on a return to play over the 10 days and two friendlies. So it's just to buy a little time."

Steve Clarke in good spirits.
He's entered the media conference sharing a joke with reporters.
Here he is.
Watch along at the top of the page, we'll provide quotes right here as well.
Still waiting for the gaffer to take his seat.
Maybe waiting to get Ben Doak's permission slip.

So, two of these players will miss out. A goalkeeper will almost certainly be one of them. Liam Kelly, probably. But who's the other?
Scotland are so thin at right-back and right wing-back that Ross McCrorie has a big chance of making the cut if he shows up well in camp.
Similarly, Ben Doak in a forward role. Doak has not played for Liverpool since December but, if he's now fit, he offers something that Scotland lack - absolute pace out wide. If Doak impresses in training, he's probably in.
Clarke has seven centre-halves. Does he need seven? He has eight midfielders. Does he need eight?
Of those 15 players who is the most vulnerable? With his lack of game time, it could be Ryan Jack. Or if he wants Jack's experience as a defensive midfielder it could be that one of the centre-halves loses out.
Kieran Tierney, Jack Hendry, Ryan Porteous and Scott McKenna are shoo-ins. Clarke loves Grant Hanley. That leaves John Souttar and Liam Cooper. These debates, just when you thought they were over, will be raging everywhere in Scotland right now.
Goalkeepers: Angus Gunn (Norwich City), Zander Clark (Hearts), Craig Gordon (Hearts), Liam Kelly (Motherwell).
Defenders: Andy Robertson (Liverpool), Kieran Tierney (Real Sociedad), Jack Hendry (Al Ettifaq), Ryan Porteous (Watford), Liam Cooper (Leeds United), Scott McKenna (FC Copenhagen), Grant Hanley (Norwich City), Greg Taylor (Celtic), John Souttar (Rangers), Anthony Ralston (Celtic), Ross McCrorie (Bristol City).
Midfielders: Callum McGregor (Celtic), Ryan Christie (Bournemouth), Billy Gilmour (Brighton & Hove Albion), John McGinn (Aston Villa), Kenny McLean (Norwich City), Scott McTominay (Manchester United), Stuart Armstrong (Southampton), Ryan Jack (Rangers).
Forwards: Lyndon Dykes (Queen's Park Rangers), Che Adams (Southampton), Lawrence Shankland (Hearts), Ben Doak (Liverpool), James Forrest (Celtic).
Uncapped Liverpool teenager Ben Doak is a shock inclusion in Steve Clarke’s provisional Scotland squad for Euro 2024.
The 18-year-old is yet to start a Premier League match and has recently resumed training after a knee operation in December.
Celtic winger James Forrest is recalled nearly three years since his last international appearance and there is a place for uncapped Bristol City defender Ross McCrorie.
The 28-man list must be trimmed to 26 by 7 June.
Head coach Clarke retains four goalkeepers, including veteran Craig Gordon, with one expected to be cut.
Scotland warm up with friendlies against Gibraltar and Finland before opening the tournament against hosts Germany on 14 June.
Scotland’s other Group A opponents are Switzerland and Hungary.
Seventeen of those chosen were Clarke picks at the delayed Euro 2020.
McCrorie, 26, has been in senior squads before and the versatile former Rangers and Aberdeen player was a fixture at Under-21 level, playing 20 times over a four-year period.
He missed the first half of this campaign through injury but has since been a regular for Bristol City, filling in at right-back, wing-back and central defence.
Doak has two goals in six Under-21 outings for his country.
He made three Europa League starts and one in the EFL Cup in the early part of the season, along with a cameo on the opening day of the Premier League campaign.
Scotland have lost Aaron Hickey, Nathan Patterson and Lewis Ferguson to injuries, while there must be concerns over Doak, Grant Hanley, Stuart Armstrong and Ryan Jack.
Southampton midfielder Armstrong is recovering from a hamstring problem sustained last month, while defender Hanley was an unused substitute in both legs of Norwich City’s play-off loss, having missed most of the season with an Achilles issue.
Jack has not played for Rangers since early March.
How the Scotland squad was announced
Doak, Hanley and Jack are not the only ones with limited game time this term.
The absence of Hickey and Patterson has propelled Anthony Ralston to the front of the right-back queue.
However, the 25-year-old with eight caps has only started eight games for Celtic in all competitions.
Liam Cooper is an influential dressing room character for Leeds and Scotland but has started just eight league games.
At the age of 41, Gordon, the second choice goalkeeper at the last Euros, has managed a mere seven matches since breaking his leg in December 2022.
Forrest made only three Celtic starts prior to April. However, he was reinstated for four post-split Premiership matches, scoring three goals and providing one assist, to go with a goal and assist in the Scottish Cup semi-final.
At the other end of the scale, Aston Villa captain John McGinn has played in 61 matches for club and country.
McGinn has an impressive 18 goals from 64 caps, placing him fifth on Scotland's all-time scorers list.
Scott McTominay hit a magnificent seven in qualifying, with only Romelu Lukaku, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane scoring more. The powerful midfielder also reached double figures for Manchester United.
Che Adams may have gone 10 internationals without finding the net but his haul of 18 has helped take Southampton to the Premier League play-off final.
And then there's Lawrence Shankland, who must be brimming with confidence after banging in 31 goals for Hearts and picking up the PFA Scotland player of the year.
As far as creatures of habit go, Clarke would give a house cat a run for its money.
The rumours that he was on the verge of picking Aberdeen’s Connor Barron always seemed a little fanciful, but then so, too, did the chat of Doak being included.
Doak hasn’t played for Liverpool since mid-December, but you can see why Clarke is keen to have a look at him. He’s a flyer and he offers something different.
His level of fitness must be decent, even if he’s not been appearing for what was Jurgen Klopp’s side. Doak is the bolter.
One goalkeeper and one other player will lose out when this squad is cut from 28 to 26. Doak still has a lot of work to do, but his inclusion is exciting.
It almost - almost - takes your mind off the fact Hickey, Ferguson and Patterson are missing. Right-back, or right wing-back, remains an issue to keep the Tartan Army awake at night.
There are rustiness concerns over Hanley, Armstrong and Jack, but Clarke has gone with the tried and tested, while crossing his fingers that they’ll be ready.
Forrest’s late surge with Celtic - and injuries elsewhere - has got him in. A few weeks ago he was kicking his heels on the Celtic bench and now look at him.
If Scotland in Germany can be as unbreakable as Forrest’s spirit then these championships should be a joy.
