Scott Booth (born December 16, 1971 in Aberdeen ) is a former Scottish football player and current coach, who last played for FC Aberdeen , but also worked in the Bundesliga for Borussia Dortmund .

Career

society

Scott Booth began his professional career at Aberdeen FC , where he played for eight years. Before that he was in the youth of the Deeside Boys Club. He quickly became the fan favorite in Aberdeen and they were close to the championship several times, but in the end you always had to settle for second place.

In 1995 he played every game until an injury incapacitated him before the League Cup final and so the final had to be played without him. But Aberdeen FC defeated Dundee FC 2-0. Two years later he left FC Aberdeen and moved to the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund . There he played with his compatriot Paul Lambert . When he won the World Cup in 1997 by beating Cruzeiro Belo Horizonte 2-0, he was not involved. After six months and only nine appearances, there were two loan periods to the Netherlands for FC Utrecht and Vitesse Arnheim . He was able to secure a regular place at both clubs.

In 1999 he moved to the Netherlands for FC Twente Enschede . There he won the KNVB Cup in 2001 .

In 2003 he moved back to his hometown club FC Aberdeen . There he was the top scorer of his team with eight goals in the 2003/04 season, his contract was not extended at the end of the season to the incomprehension of the fans due to an injury. Booth then ended his career.

National team

He made his A international debut in 1993. In total, he played 22 internationals and scored six goals. He was also a member of the squad for the 1996 European Football Championship and the 1998 World Cup . Booth had previously played for the Scottish U-21 national team for three years , for which he scored eight goals in 15 appearances. To this day (as of July 2020) he and Jordan Rhodes hold the record for the most U-21 international goals in the Scottish team. There are also two international appearances for the Scottish B national team.

Others

Scott Booth started out as a co-commentator and football expert at Setanta Sports , but the company went bankrupt in 2009. He is currently working as a freelance co-commentator for Champions League games at STV. When he began his trainer training, however, he withdrew from being an expert.
