David Bates has been called up to the Scotland squad, replacing fellow defender Luis Binks, according to BBC News. The outlet reported that Binks has dropped out of the squad for Scotland's matches against North Macedonia and Switzerland, and that Bates has been selected in his place.
BBC News described Bates's selection with the phrase "called up," and its headline labels Bates as Turkey-based. That description of his club location does not appear in the summary of the report, so it is attributed here to the headline alone. The summary identifies both players as defenders and does not name either player's club.
The summary does not say why Binks left the squad. It also does not give the dates or venues of the matches against North Macedonia and Switzerland, and it does not describe any other changes to the squad. BBC News reported only the exchange of the two players and the two fixtures it named.
Because the available summary is brief, this account is limited to those points. Bates's inclusion and Binks's withdrawal are the only squad movements the report describes. Readers seeking more would need to consult the original BBC News article.
Scotland's squad for the two matches is therefore described in the report only through the changes it names. Any other players selected for the matches are not identified in the summary.
