Tierney left out of Scotland squad at Arsenal's request as full-back continues recovery from hip injury

Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney has been left out of Scotland's squad for its upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers.

The 22-year-old will miss out as his side face Russia on October 10 and San Marino three days later as they look to revive their faltering qualification campaign.

Tierney has been introduced into the fold for the Gunners slowly as he continues his recovery from a double hernia operation in the off-season.

After playing one match with Arsenal's U23 side, Tierney made his debut for the Gunners last week in a 5-0 win against Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup.
