Lyndon Dykes hopes to return from injury in time for Scotland’s June friendlies against Iceland and Liechtenstein.<\/b><\/p>\n
The Birmingham City striker has been out since February with a calf problem, missing the club’s run-in as English League One champions.<\/p>\n
The 29-year-old won the last of his 42 caps in November’s win away to Poland in the Nations League.<\/p>\n
“I’m feeling good,” he told BBC Scotland. “I’ve been on the pitch running this week.<\/p>\n
“Hopefully I can get through a couple more weeks of rehab with the physios and the aim is to be involved in the June camp for Scotland.”<\/p>\n
Dykes, who has scored nine international goals, was ruled out for the Nations League play-off loss to Greece and also missed Euro 2024 with ankle ligament damage picked up in training just days before the squad left for Germany.<\/p>\n
“This whole season has been tough but I’m sure I’ll come out of it strong and get back to playing consistently and delivering the goods,” he added.<\/p>\n
“Having these internationals coming up is good for me to get into that rhythm again and gives me something to look forward to.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been looking at those games, then have a little break and come back flying for next season.”<\/p>\n
Iceland will visit Hampden Park on 6 June (19:45 BST) and Steve Clarke’s side will travel to Vaduz to take on Liechtenstein on 9 June (18:00).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
