Aaron Hickey returns to the Scotland squad for the first time in almost two years as World Cup qualifying begins with an away double-header against Denmark and Belarus next month.
The Brentford full-back, 23, has made two appearances as substitute in the Premier League in recent weeks, having been out of action since October 2023.
The last of his 14 international caps came in the same month.
Ryan Christie, Ben Gannon Doak and Lyndon Dykes are also back after significant injury breaks.
Hearts goalkeeper Zander Clark may be favourite to take the gloves, since Angus Gunn and Liam Kelly are second choice for Nottingham Forest and Rangers respectively.
Blackburn Rovers defender Dominic Hyam, capped once as a late substitute in June 2023, is recalled by manager Steve Clarke, while teenager Lennon Miller, now at Udinese, retains his place after playing in summer friendlies against Iceland and Liechtenstein.
The inclusion of the 19-year-old means four of the eight midfielders listed are based in Serie A.
Kieron Bowie has started the season well for Hibernian and the 22-year-old striker gets another opportunity after making his debut from the bench against Liechtenstein in June.
Scotland go to Copenhagen on 5 September and meet Belarus in Hungary three days later.
Greece are the other nation in Group C.
Only the group winners are guaranteed a place at the 2026 World Cup, which is being hosted by USA, Canada and Mexico, with Scotland bidding to qualify for the first time since 1998.

Goalkeepers: Clark (Heart of Midlothian), Gunn (Nottingham Forest), Kelly (Rangers)

Disney and Pixar never fail to amaze fans with their abundance of ideas for new films or sequels to beloved favourites. And if you’re a fan of the animation wizzes, you’ll be pleased to know that a new movie is hitting cinemas in 2026.
It’s called Hoppers and will be coming to the big screen on March 6. The film follows an animal lover named Mabel, who hops at the opportunity to try new technology that allows her communicate with furry friends.
The film, created and directed by Daniel Chong, explores what happens when you turn human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals. Using the new technology, Mabel will uncover mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined.
Piper Curda, Bobby Moynihan, and Jon Hamm make up the cast. Chong, a well-known director known for his roles in We Bare Bears, said: “I can’t wait for everyone to see it.” And it appears that there are plenty of people anticipating the release date!
“This caught my attention,” I thought.
On YouTube, people rushed to share their excitement after watching the trailer. One individual said: “The We Bare Bears guy is making a Pixar movie. I can already tell I’m gonna love this movie”
Another person commented, “It caught my attention that the director of We Bare Bears was directing this. I’d anticipate this from him; delightful wholesomeness that will make everyone smile!”
A third gushed, “This looks awful, so Disney better do a good job of promoting this movie.”
Another user praised the deers’ animation style, particularly the shrinking pupil, as “I love it”
Another critic gushed, “I can’t recall the last time I was this excited about a Pixar movie.” I’m in a rush.
Comparisons of the animation and avatar styles

Others were less enthusiastic about the upcoming release, though. One commenter lamented, “I detest this pointless animation style.
Some people also think the film isn’t particularly original. This movie is not original, and I detest this animation style, according to a critic. Brother Bear and Avatar are paired up for the laughs in Open Season. I don’t find it appealing.
Another person described Avatar as being so animated, with beavers and not blue people. Got it”. And a further expressed regret, saying, “I’m sorry if anyone else gets the Avatar plot with this movie.”
We think it’s best to wait until we actually watch the movie, which we are so eager to do so!

Lily Phillips and Bonnie Blue, the only two of their friends, once had a “fiddle” before it started to rage with their shocking sex challenges.

Controversial adult stars Lily Phillips and Bonnie Blue have left experts and the public shocked by their disturbing sex challenges. The two women once started off as friends but distance quickly grew between them as their notoriety skyrocketed.
Experts and sex professionals have warned that young women are being pushed to potentially damaging extremes by the saturated market and the current digital environment that favors viral, shocking content.
Among them are Lily, 24, and Bonnie, 26, who have flogged extreme X-rated content on OnlyFans. They have hit the headlines following their shocking challenges as well as their rumoured feud.
After becoming the most successful adult website creators, Lily and Bonnie, real name Tia Billinger, formed a friendship. However, when both women made sick challenges in an effort to break world records, things started to go wrong.

Where did the conflict start?
When Lily revealed she had slept with 100 men in total for 24 hours in December, the conflict between the adult stars rekindled. The actress, who wept after the stunt and warned that it was “not for the weak,” later revealed that she planned to go to bed with 1000 men every day.
Days after Lily announced she was ‘in training’ for the challenge, Bonnie then declared she had beaten her to it. She claimed to have slept with 1,057 men in 12 hours, ‘breaking the world record’ before Lily.
Overthinking collide
Bonnie claimed to have come up with the 1000 men idea(Image: tiktok/bonniebluclips)
Bonnie claimed in an interview that the 1,000-man stunt was her idea but Lily announced it first – seemingly causing frictions. Bonnie told the Daily Mail that Lily had “stabbed her in the back” by “copying” her idea.
According to the Nottingham-born sex worker, she shared her initial idea when she invited Lily to join her at Freshers’ Week to shockingly sleep with first-year university students for OnlyFans content.
She said: “Way before Lily even announced that she wanted to break the world sex record, and when I helped her out and suggested that I really wanted to break the world record, I told her.”
I also shared my idea of how to do it because I believe I’m very trustworthy and unaware of other people’s bitterness. She then announced on her social media account that she was breaking the world record three months later.
Bonnie even claimed that she had helped Lily with publicity and had already contacted contacts, only to feel “betrayed.” Although Lily congratulated Bonnie on pulling off her worrying stunt, it seems like there may be a conflict.
She told Fabulous magazine, “I respect it. Congratulations to her because that’s a lot of work. There is no competition, in my opinion.
The conflict continues.
Bonnie reportedly left a job in January because Lily allegedly arrived first. Bonnie “blew off” a scheduled appearance on the Plug Talk podcast in a bold move that might give a hint that the conflict is still ongoing.
The host claims Lily was a target because of a pre-eventual interview with the host about it. According to Adam22, an internet personality, “Bonnie cancelled several podcast appearances in LA because Lily came first.”
“Pregnancy” pranks

Lily and Bonnie made a shocking pregnancy claim on social media this year. While Lily cradled a “baby bump” just hours later, Bonnie posted a cryptic message about “cravings.”

One person urged people to “Don’t fall for this stunt,” but the stunt did not go well. Keep in mind that they are only interested in getting your attention. Another wrote, “This is not real. She is wearing a fake baby bump, according to another commenter.

Stacey wore this meaningful gold necklace on holiday(Image: staceysolomon/Instagram)
With her summery wardrobe and stylish clothing, Stacey Solomon and husband Joe Swash have been sharing some photos from their recent family vacation in Turkey, making us seriously holiday envy. Stacey spent the majority of her vacation wearing one particular gold necklace, which appears to have been meaningfully personalized with the names of all of her children.
Given that Stacey is an ambassador for the well-known jewellery brand Abbott Lyon, it’s possible to add up to six names to the delicate chain’s Multi Signature Name Necklace, which is a delicate chain that comes in two colors and two lengths and can have up to six different names.
This necklace is currently 20% off as part of a massive end-of-season sale, which reduces it to as little as £68, with prices starting at £85 and going up to £105. Depending on how you personalize it.

If Stacey is wearing a necklace similar to this one, it will now cost £80 instead of the usual £100, which is also available in gold and features the names of all five of her children (Zachary, Leighton, Rex, Rose, and Belle).
Available in 16-18″ and 18-20″ and in polished stainless steel or 18K gold-plated stainless steel, between two and six names of up to nine characters can be added, creating a thoughtful piece of jewellery that’s personal to you.
It also has a two-year quality and plating guarantee against tarnishing, and it’s labeled as water, sweat, and heat-resistant (perfect for wearing on vacation, like Stacey).
This style of necklace was made popular last year when Coleen Rooney wore one on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, featuring the names of her four boys. Coleen’s exact necklace hails from CloudBox and costs £160 for two names, however we found a more affordable option from PRYA that’s a massive £100 cheaper.

Bohomoon’s Gothic Custom Name Choker costs £35, and the chain can be fully personalized to create a special name necklace.
This also comes after fans were thrilled to spot that Stacey’s Rolex-inspired watch by Abbott Lyon is now back in stock. The star’s To the Moon and Back collection it was an instant hit, and one item that was been out of stock for some time was the Aqua Moon & Back Belgravia 30 Watch – but luckily for shoppers, it has now been restocked, and is also on sale this weekend, down from £169 to £126.75.

The stylish two-tone watch has gained a lot of fans (its solid five star rating speaks volumes), and it resembles a much more expensive designer version in its striking design. The Rolex Day-Date 36 Oyster, which is made of yellow gold and diamonds with a distinctive blue face, is similar to the Abbott Lyon watch, but it costs a sizable £57, 650.
