Stuart McKinstry receives first Scotland U21s call up

Youngster joins up for November fixtures against Kazakhstan and Belgium

Leeds United Academy star Stuart McKinstry has received his first Scotland U21s call up, after being selected in Scot Gemill's squad for their U21 Euro qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Belgium.

Kazakhstan are the visitors for a Friday night under the lights in Dundee before the youngsters take on Belgium four days later.

Scotland are on the hunt for their first win in Group I after a well-earned draw away in Turkey before a narrow defeat against Denmark at Tynecastle earlier this month.

McKinstry made his debut for Leeds United's senior side last month, featuring in the EFL Cup win over Fulham, which saw the young Scot score a penalty.

The 19 year old has also played a starring role in the U23s squad this season, which finds itself seventh in the PL2 table, after being promoted last season.]
