Southampton striker Che Adams is contemplating an international career with Scotland despite previously playing for England.
The 24-year-old has played twice for England’s Under-20s but is wanted by the Scots ahead of this summer’s European Championships.
But Sportsmail understands there is growing hope within the Scotland camp that the Saints striker - having turned down their advances twice in the future - is now ready to give the proposal serious consideration.
Adams, who has born in Leicester, qualifies for Scotland through a grandparent.
There is doubt over whether Adams will be included in Steve Clarke's squad announcement for this month’s World Cup qualifiers.
