► Who is Scott van der Sluis?

Scott van der Sluis, often recognized by his commanding presence in the goalpost, is more than just a footballer. Born as Scott Reed on 9 January 2001 in Connah’s Quay, Wales, Scott transitioned into the world of entertainment alongside his notable achievements in football.


From Connah’s Quay to the Grand Football Arenas: Early Life and Training

Growing up in the scenic town of Connah’s Quay, Wales, Scott’s affinity for football was evident early on. As a child, the lush green fields of Wales served as his training grounds. He got his first big break in football with Manchester United’s youth team in 2009. As fate would have it, Scott, being a lifelong Liverpool fan, transitioned to Liverpool’s academy a year later. His time with Liverpool lasted until 2015, after which he moved on to Swansea City.

Swansea City not only offered Scott professional training but also an education into the intricacies of the game. His association with the club continued till 2019. After parting ways, he ventured into the English non-league system, adding the likes of Northwich Victoria, Runcorn Linnets, and Merthyr Town to his footballing resume.

His footballing environment heavily influenced Scott’s personal life. He shares a close bond with his family, especially his older brother, Jamie Reed, also a former footballer. Their shared passion for the game undoubtedly fueled many family conversations.


Catching Goals and Attention: Career, Achievements, and Media Presence

Returning to his roots in 2021, Scott signed with the Cymru Leagues club, Bangor City. In no time, he rose to the rank of club captain, showcasing his leadership skills. However, a suspension imposed by the Football Association of Wales cut short his stint with the club. Searching for fresh pastures, Scott then joined the League of Ireland Premier Division club, Shelbourne, in 2022. He even renewed his contract for the 2023 season, although a unique opportunity steered his journey in a different direction.

In 2023, the siren call of the entertainment industry lured Scott, and he became a contestant on the popular show “Love Island.” Not just stopping there, he even joined the American version, “Love Island USA.” These appearances undoubtedly boosted his public image, transcending him from just a footballer to a television personality.

Embedded within Scott’s career is a series of football achievements. He has proudly represented Wales at U15, U16, and U17 levels, even clinching the Victory Shield in 2015.
