Simon Murray, a 33-year-old striker for Dundee, has been on fire this season, scoring 21 goals and adding three assists. Without his contributions, Dundee would probably be doomed to relegation. His manager has even backed him for a spot on Scotland’s team, calling on Steve Clarke to give him a chance.
Murray himself has spoken about the possibility of an international call-up, saying that while it would be unbelievable, his main focus is on helping Dundee avoid relegation. He started his career in the lower leagues before moving to Dundee United and Hibernian. He believes he could bring something different to Scotland’s forward line, even though he acknowledges the competition is tough.
Despite the growing calls for his inclusion in the national team, Murray remains focused on the present and is not too worried about international recognition at the moment. He just wants to do his job and help Dundee stay in the Premiership.
