Celtic's Commons not shutting door on Scotland career

Kris Commons says he would consider playing for Scotland again if the opportunity arose.

The 30-year old Celtic star quit international football in May to focus on his club duties but has kept the door ajar to a potential return if it suited all parties involved.

"I never left on bad terms. If there was an opportunity to return in the near future where I felt I could offer something to Scotland I'd certainly think about it," said Commons.

"I always keep an eye on the results and who's playing, I always wish our boys the best. But at this moment in time I'm just concentrating being the best I can be for Celtic.

"A lot of people do have second thoughts, and I think when I am playing the way I am I think I could offer something.

"I'm 30-years-old now and I think that the little time that I do get to spend with my family, and go away on holiday and stuff like that, it's benefited me more and I am putting in better performances week in, week out for Celtic."
