Aberdeen assistant manager Tony Docherty will assist the Scotland national team for this month’s games against Canada and Slovenia.
Derek McInnes’ assistant will join Gordon Strachan and Mark McGhee for the friendly against Canada at Easter Road on Wednesday, March 22, and the World Cup qualifier against Slovenia at Hampden Park four days later.
Docherty will replace Andy Watson, who has left to take up a role as technical director at the Al Habsi Football School in Oman, for the next two matches.
Strachan said: “Tony is well-respected within the game and we look forward to working alongside him for the forthcoming matches.
“I would like to thank Derek McInnes and Aberdeen for allowing Tony to come work with the Scotland backroom staff for these next two games.”
