We have Scott Love Island odds for you plus all you need to know about the popular ITV show's bombshell including his age and job.
Shelbourne Goalkeeper Scott van der Sluis is in hot contention to win Love Island with things set to boil over for favourites Jess and Sammy. The Welsh native shared his love of the Irish capital with Dubliner Catherine, but the door appears open to a match with Leah as the pair shared an intimate chat on Monday night’s episode.
Support for Scott came after viewers were teased with a bitter fallout between 5/2 favourite Jess and partner Sammy (7/2), who is starting to lose support having been overtaken by Tyrique (11/4) as the most likely man to form part of the winning couple.
The prospect of an Irish victory received a blow when fan favourite Catherine Agbaje was left in tears by Andre’s shock exit from the villa last week and her chances of sharing the £50,000 prize money have since drifted out to 7/1 from 4/1.
Scott made waves in Ireland when news broke of his decision to leave Shelbourne for the Love Island villa. Shelbourne manager and Irish football legend Damien Duff joked about the situation saying "I was shocked and saddened that Scott chose a villa in Mallorca full of beautiful single women over myself, the staff and the players".
Despite Duff's light hearted remarks he did close the door on the idea of a return for Scott to the team when he said, "I have tried to create a really serious working environment here and he won’t be coming back, but I wish him well".
Scott suggested that Love Island offered him the chance to go for something different, "I’ve loved my time at Shels, Football is all I’ve ever done, all I’ve ever known. So this is a new and exciting opportunity for a change-up in life."
Lawrence Lyons, spokesperson for BoyleSports, said:
“Jess and Sammy remain right amongst the favourites, but they could well be about to drop the ball and punters are beginning to think Scott could be a keeper.”
