Southampton star Stuart Armstrong has revealed how he convinced Che Adams to switch international allegiances.

The England-born striker has linked up with Scotland for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers.

"I spoke to him a few times at our training ground, little bits here and there," Armstrong said. "Every time he asked about the squad and how things were going I could only give him good words. It was a big decision for him and one he had to make himself. We are all very happy he has made the decision he has.

"He asked me general questions about the Scotland squad, as you generally do coming into a new place. I had nothing but good words to say about the squad. We are in a great place and the atmosphere is great.

"We have the Euros to look forward to and a very exciting campaign is about to begin. I only had positive things to say and I am sure he has seen that for himself now that he has joined up with the squad."
