The 29-year-old was previously called up during spells with Aberdeen and Dunfermline.

“It’s a great honour,” Morris said.

“I am absolutely delighted, getting in to national teams is a lot more difficult as you don’t have the coaches watching you every day.

“But obviously my performances during matches have been to a standard where they think I am worthy of being there.

“Being selected for your national team is always something that a player wants to do and it’s a very prestigious moment for any player of any nationality.”
