Norwich City goalkeeper Angus Gunn is proud to be following in his father Bryan's footsteps by representing Scotland at international level.

The 27-year-old had represented England at youth level, but was called up by the Tartan Army for the first time recently after switching allegiances.

Angus could make his debut in Saturday's meeting with Cyprus, 33 years after Bryan featured for the first time against Egypt. Scotland then face Spain three days later, with both fixtures EUro 2024 qualifiers.

“Obviously as a player it’s something you want, to make your family proud," said Gunn Junior. “To see that reaction from them was great.

“The Scottish side of my family have all been asking for tickets for the game. For me, that’s a big thing and I’m looking forward to seeing them all here and hopefully making them all really proud.

“Just generally, as a parent, at the start he (Bryan) was always there. He finished his career pretty early, just a few years after I was born.

“He was always able to be there as I was growing up and playing football. He used to take me down to the Norwich Academy when I was younger and watch every game."

When Angus first attended the Canaries' academy he wanted to play outfield, but he was always going to end up on the same path Bryan had.

“Originally, I wanted to play outfield, when I was around five or six," he continued. "I went to a trial at Norwich and somehow ended up in goal. Since then he’s pushed me to go for it. So hopefully I can make them all proud.

“Hopefully I can have a good training week and, if selected, I’ll walk out at a full house here. To hear the national anthem I think will put the hairs on the back of my neck up.

“I’m looking forward to the atmosphere but I think the most important thing is focusing on the game and getting the three points.”
