The 24-year-old Napoli player limped off during Saturday's 4-1 friendly victory over Curacao at Hampden Park, and the Scottish FA later confirmed he would play no part in the finals. Head coach Steve Clarke now faces a race against time to find a replacement before the squad leaves for the United States on Sunday.\n\nGilmour, who had been expected to anchor Scotland's midfield in group matches against Haiti, Morocco, and Brazil, pulled up in discomfort early in the second half after a tackle. Teammates quickly gathered around the distressed player, signalling the seriousness of the issue. \"He hurt himself in the tackle and then made the decision he had to come off, so that tells you he knew it wasn't right,\" Clarke said post-match, admitting he was \"100% worried\" about the injury. The incident overshadowed what had been a promising World Cup warm-up for the Scots.\n\nThe loss of Gilmour, a player who has grown into a creative and defensive force for his country, leaves a significant void. His ability to dictate tempo and break up play will be sorely missed, especially against the high-calibre opposition awaiting in the group stage. Clarke must now decide whether to turn to youth or recall a more experienced figure from his standby list.\n\nThe most intriguing candidate is 19-year-old Manchester United youngster Tyler Fletcher, who was handed his senior international debut as a half-time substitute in the Curacao game. The timing could not have been more opportune. Fletcher, deployed in a holding role, drew immediate praise for his composure and passing range. Clarke described him as \"a little bit closer\" than the other standby players to earning a World Cup call-up, noting he had even considered bringing him on as Gilmour exited.\n\nFletcher's rapid ascent has a familiar ring. He is the son of former Scotland captain and United stalwart Darren Fletcher, and his twin brother Jack represents England at youth level. The younger Fletcher made his Manchester United first-team debut in February and added another Premier League appearance on the season's final day. His integration into the national setup this week has been seamless, with coaching staff and senior players alike impressed by his maturity.\n\nFormer Scotland winger Neil McCann, working as a pundit, described Fletcher as looking \"really accomplished\" in the deep-lying position, a view shared by Clarke. Scotland midfielder Kenny McLean, who played alongside Darren Fletcher at the start of his international career, was even more emphatic. \"I said to the lads after his first session, I could see something special in him,\" McLean said. \"In my first session with Scotland, Darren stood out a mile. Fortunately for us, his son is pretty similar.\"\n\nWhile Fletcher appears to be the front-runner, Clarke stressed he needs to consult with his staff before finalising any decision. Other names on standby include Rangers' Conor Barron, Sparta Prague's Andy Irving, and Udinese's Lennon Miller, all of whom have been training with the squad. The manager's choice will have to balance immediate impact with long-term development, a tricky calculation so close to the tournament's kickoff.\n\nSaturday's friendly itself, despite the injury drama, delivered positives for Scotland. After falling behind early, they equalised through Findlay Curtis—the very substitute who replaced Gilmour—before Lawrence Shankland netted twice in the second half. Ryan Christie converted a late penalty to complete the 4-1 rout against a Curacao side that played the final half-hour with 10 men following a red card. Yet all thoughts quickly turned to the World Cup roster.\n\nClarke and his players now face a whirlwind schedule. They depart for the United States on Sunday, with their opening fixture against Haiti looming. Adapting to the loss of a key midfielder on the eve of the tournament will test the squad's depth and resilience. But in Fletcher, Scotland may have unearthed a new gem capable of writing his own chapter in the nation's football story.\n\nBased on reporting from BBC Sport.","news","Billy Gilmour's knee injury rules him out of the World Cup; 19-year-old Tyler Fletcher impresses in debut to emerge as possible replacement for Scotland's","326257546291580928","Brighton","336256167867060225","327055352312893440","Brighton vs Manchester United","2026-05-30T19:16:43Z","scotland-s-gilmour-ruled-out-teenager-fletcher-could","BBC Sport","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.bbc.com\u002Fsport\u002Ffootball\u002Farticles\u002Fcn9pwg12z0lo?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=rss","326222712429088768","Scotland",[77,68,63,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87],"326257539425505280","326222711682502656","326222712219373568","326257539471642624","326257567044997120","326257808280391680","326255040643731456","326222711569256448",[78,69,64,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96],"Napoli","England","Morocco","Udinese","Rangers","Norwich","Sparta Praha","Brazil","Scotland's Gilmour Ruled Out: Teenager Fletcher Could",[99,134,165,194],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":66,"excerpt":100,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":101,"leagueId":29,"leagueName":30,"matchId":102,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":103,"slug":104,"sourceName":105,"sourceURL":106,"teamId":107,"teamName":108,"teamIds":109,"teamNames":121,"title":133},"Guéla Doué scored and assisted as Ivory Coast beat France 2-1 in a friendly, outshining his brother Désiré who featured for Les Bleus in the sibling showdown.","338200147588550657","0","2026-06-05T04:00:00Z","guela-doue-downs-brother-s-france-ivorian-2-1-win","L'Equipe","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.lequipe.fr\u002FFootball\u002FArticle\u002FUn-but-et-une-passe-decisive-contre-la-france-la-soiree-de-reve-pour-guela-doue-avec-la-cote-d-ivoire\u002F1681944#at_medium=RSS_feeds","326222712533946368","Ivory Coast",[107,110,111,112,113,114,115,116,117,118,119,120],"326222711447621632","326255037997125632","326257536145559552","326222711401484288","326222767416414208","326257536078450688","326257536296554496","326257537865224192","326257686389723136","326257535994564608","326222707169431552",[108,122,123,124,125,126,127,128,129,130,131,132],"France","Strasbourg","Rennes","Belgium","Lesotho","Paris Saint Germain","Auxerre","Estoril","Together","Nantes","Anderlecht","Guéla Doué downs brother's France: Ivorian 2-1 win",{"awayTeamId":135,"awayTeamName":136,"body":-1,"category":66,"excerpt":137,"homeTeamId":138,"homeTeamName":139,"id":140,"leagueId":29,"leagueName":30,"matchId":141,"matchName":142,"publishedAt":143,"slug":144,"sourceName":75,"sourceURL":145,"teamId":138,"teamName":139,"teamIds":146,"teamNames":155,"title":164},"326222712622026752","South Africa","Shakira & Burna Boy sing 'Dai Dai' at 2026 World Cup opener June 11 in Mexico City, with J Balvin, Tyla.
