Scotland add Barry Bannan

Aston Villa midfielder Barry Bannan has been called up to the Scotland squad for their World Cup qualifiers against Wales and Serbia.

Despite having previously been given 10 caps at senior level, 23-year-old Bannan had not been named in Gordon Strachan's original 28-man party.

However, he has now been included after West Bromwich Albion's James Morrison decided to pull out earlier today with a muscular injury.

Bannan made his debut for the Tartan Army during a Euro 2012 qualifier against Lithuania.
