Liverpool have signed Aberdeen defender Calvin Ramsay and he isn’t the first player from north of Hadrian’s Wall to turn out for the Reds.

Club legends like Kenny Dalglish, Alan Hansen and Graeme Souness were proud Scots, along with legendary manager Bill Shankly, and there’s always been something quite emotive about the connection between Liverpool and their Scottish players.

While the Premier League era has seen players from all over the globe ply their trade in England, coinciding with a downturn for the Scotland national team, there’s still been a healthy number of Scottish players that have turned out at Anfield.
