The Celtic star is back in the national team fold with the countdown to the opening game with Germany on.
The Celtic star is back in Steve Clarke ’s plans for the showpiece after a three-year absence spanning back to the last staging of the tournament. Forrest’s red-hot winger form at club level secured his recall. But the 32-year-old has no qualms about filling any role for his country. With injuries ruling Aaron Hickey and Nathan Patterson out of the showpiece, Clarke will eye all options as he hunts results in Germany.
“We were maybe dominating the ball more, so it’s maybe a little bit different than with Scotland. We were maybe attacking a bit more than with the national team. I know the system Scotland has been playing. They’ve had a couple of injuries, but have had a tight group right through doing well in qualifying. When you’re getting older as well, it does become harder.
Forrest could face Germany in the Euros opener to cap a brilliant end to the season and continued: “It would be incredible. The last couple of months couldn’t have gone any better, to be honest. I’m buzzing to meet up with the camp. There’s the couple of friendlies first and, if I can help the team and contribute, then I’ll be delighted to do that.”
Forrest has had to cancel plans to attend a wedding to extend his marriage with Scotland after Clarke made his squad announcement. He smiled: “I did! Just because it was a late call, but I was more than happy to. It was an easy decision. It was meant to be this week.
