Burnley midfielder Scott Arfield says that receiving a call-up to the Scotland national side would be the "pinnacle" of his career.

Scott Arfield has said that being called up to Scotland's national squad would be the "pinnacle" of his playing career.

The Burnley midfielder, who was born in Scotland but is also eligible to play for Canada, regularly featured for Scotland's Under-21 side until 2010, but is yet to make an appearance for the seniors.

The 26-year-old told BBC Scotland: "It would be the pinnacle of my career if I could pull on a Scotland jersey and be an international football player. That is something I'm striving to be and, if the manager ever sees fit to include me, I would be ecstatic.

"I've spoken to my dad, who was born in Toronto, and he would be more than happy for me to jump ship. I'm quite open-minded about it and I've not made my mind up whether it be Scotland or Canada.

"Once you've played club football for so long. you want to take the next step to see what it's all about."

Scotland will play the Republic of Ireland in a Euro 2016 qualifier next month.
