McTominay Travels Separately in Boston as Scotland Take Precaution

Scotland midfielder Scott McTominay was not on the team bus when it arrived at the squad’s hotel in Boston, after missing Thursday’s training session because of an upset stomach.

The Manchester United midfielder travelled separately as a precaution, with Scotland managing his condition carefully ahead of their next involvement. The decision was made after he sat out training, but there has been no suggestion of a serious issue.

McTominay Misses Training in Boston

McTominay’s absence from the team bus drew attention as Scotland continued their preparations in the United States. The midfielder had already been unavailable for Thursday’s session due to illness, and the separate travel arrangement was understood to be a precautionary measure.

With Scotland in camp in Boston, the focus remains on keeping players fit and available as they build towards upcoming fixtures. McTominay is one of the side’s key midfield options, so any fitness concern is being monitored closely.

Scotland Manage Fitness Concerns Carefully

Upset stomachs and minor illnesses are common issues during tournament camps, and teams often take a cautious approach when a player is not feeling fully well. In this case, Scotland opted not to place McTominay on the bus with the rest of the squad, instead allowing him to travel separately.

That approach suggests the issue is being treated as a short-term precaution rather than a major setback. Scotland will hope McTominay recovers quickly and returns to full training without further disruption.

The midfielder’s status will be watched closely in the build-up to Scotland’s next session, with the team aiming to keep momentum while avoiding unnecessary risks with player health.
