Scotland Captain Gives Personalised Gift Boxes To Team

10 Jun 2021

The Scotland national football team is competing in its first major tournament for over 20 years, and team captain Andy Robertson has surprised his teammates and all the backroom staff with personalised gifts ahead of the Euro 2020 competition.

The Sun reports that Steve Clarke’s national team last participated in the 1998 World Cup, and to mark the occasion Robertson treated the team to some Scottish-themed gifts.

Each player involved in the squad received a bottle of Johnnie Walker blue label whiskey and Irn Bru, as well as cans of Brewdog and Tennents. The bundle also featured a pair of £300 Bang&Olufsen headphones, a copy of FIFA 21 and a box of Walkers Shortbread Fingers.

Representing Robertson, a spokesperson from football agency PLG Group said: “Scotland captain Andy Robertson, has surprised his full squad and backroom staff with a unique gift box ahead of the team’s first match on the 14th June.

“To celebrate Scotland’s 23-year wait for an international tournament, Andy has pulled together an extra special line-up of branded gifts which pay homage to the team’s roots.”

The Liverpool FC player shared an image of his own personalised box on Twitter, saying: “Thank you to all the brands that made this possible, very much appreciated.”

Scotland is first in action against the Czech Republic on Monday 14 June as they play their opening fixture in Group D. After that is the highly-anticipated meeting with England on the following Friday, before finally facing Croatia on June 22.

The Scots secured their place at Euro 2020 in dramatic fashion, defeating Serbia 5-4 on penalties in their final play-off fixture back in November.
