Here come the SWAGS! Meet the wives and girlfriends of the players hoping to do Scotland proud at Euro 2024 in Germany

  • Wives and girlfriends have started arriving in Germany ahead of opening clash 

Their menfolk carry the hopes of a nation.

But as excitement builds ahead of the European Championships in Germany, Scotland’s players are already winners off the pitch.

The team will be cheered on by a very glamorous array of wives and girlfriends as they strive to do their country proud at the tournament.

The women – dubbed the SWAGs – include Jack Hendry’s model girlfriend Robyn Keen, Greg Taylor’s wife Laura, Scott McTominay’s girlfriend Cam Reading and Jade Kelly Mills, the girlfriend of goalkeeper Angus Gunn.

Other SWAGS are Lawrence Shankland’s fiancée Nicole Curran, Lyndon Dykes’ wife Victoria and Ryan Christie’s fiancée Georgie Bell.

Some will be among the crowds at the sporting event of the summer, with Ms Mills understood to be jetting out today to join the keeper’s family.

Others share regular updates on social media about their pride at their other halves’ performances on the pitch. Ms Keen has also been delighting fans by charting the progress of her pregnancy online with touching messages to the Scotland defender.

The off-pitch backing of footballers’ wives and girlfriends has been a feature of tournaments since 2006, when the England team’s partners were accused of distracting the players.

But Steve Clarke’s men are focused on success and the national squad will also have the support of the Tartan Army, who will be in Munich in their thousands for Friday’s opening game against Germany.

Many will be travelling without tickets as the Scottish FA was allocated only 10,000. Fans have been warned to be on the alert for ticket sales scams.

Supporters have also been warned by Germany’s intelligence service of a heightened threat of terrorist attacks.

It is thought that German support for Israel has made attacks more likely.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office said: ‘There is a high threat of terrorist attack globally affecting UK interests and British nationals, including from groups and individuals who view the UK and British nationals as targets.’
