Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has paid tribute to his late grandfather, describing him as his biggest fan. The 23-year-old made his England debut last Tuesday, replacing Manchester City's Elliot Anderson in the 70th minute against the Czech Republic. Scott told BBC Radio 5 Live, "England debut - it's what dreams are made of."
He added that this moment was particularly special for him and his family, given that his grandfather, who passed away last week, would have been immensely proud. The midfielder's family, including his partner, parents, and brother, have been his pillars of support throughout his football career. Scott's grandfather, unfortunately, wasn't able to witness his son's achievement.
