Ché Adams

Ché Adams chose to represent Scotland through his mother's eligibility and has repaid that decision with consistent performances, becoming the national team's most reliable centre-forward. Quick, technically assured, and capable of holding the ball up as well as running in behind, he offers Scotland a forward profile that is difficult to find domestically. After years at Southampton, he moved to Torino in 2024, continuing his development in Serie A. Adams is not a prolific goalscorer at club level, but his all-round contribution — pressing, linking play, creating space — makes him central to how Scotland function in the final third.
