Fraser, Trialist Keeper Henly and Target McGhee in Scotland U21 Squad - Ipswich Town News

Loan winger Ryan Fraser, trialist keeper Jonathan Henly and Blues target Jordan McGhee have been named in the Scotland U21 squad for their Euro 2017 qualifier against Northern Ireland at Mourneview Park, Lurgan on Saturday 5th September (KO 2pm).

Aberdeen-born Fraser, who is on a season-long loan with the Blues from AFC Bournemouth, has previously won eight U21 caps, scoring two goals.

Former Reading keeper Henly, who has previously won one U21 cap, has been training with Town for the last three weeks and played in Monday’s 3-0 U21s victory over Coventry at Playford Road.

The Blues are understood to have made a number of offers for defender McGhee, who skippers Scotland's U21s and has won 10 caps, but his club Hearts say they have heard nothing recently from Town and hope their interest has cooled.

Scotland U21s: Ryan Fulton (Liverpool), Jack Hamilton (Heart of Midlothian), Jonathan Henly (Unattached), Stuart Findlay (Celtic, on loan to Kilmarnock), Stephen Hendrie (West Ham United), Donald Love (Manchester United), Callum McFadzean (Sheffield United), Jordan McGhee (Heart of Midlothian), Callum Paterson (Heart of Midlothian), Jay Fulton (Swansea City), Cameron King (Norwich City), John McGinn (Hibernian), John Souttar (Dundee United), Charlie Telfer (Dundee United), Ryan Christie (Inverness Caledonian Thistle), Sam Nicholson (Heart of Midlothian), Ryan Fraser (Bournemouth, on loan to Ipswich Town), Ryan Gauld (Sporting Clube de Portugal), Billy King (Heart of Midlothian), Declan McManus (Fleetwood Town), Jason Cummings (Hibernian), Sam Nicholson (Heart of Midlothian), Lawrence Shankland (Aberdeen).
