Former Borders footballer 'set to join Love Island'
Last updated 30th Jun 2023
A former Borders footballer is rumoured to be moving into the Love Island villa.
Bosses of the ITV2 reality dating show have reportedly signed Ouzy See - who played for Selkirk and Berwick Rangers before going on to join Scottish League One side Edinburgh City.
The 28-year-old model, who has more than 10,000 followers on Instagram, is signed to the same modelling agency as fellow Scot and Islander, Ella Thomas.
His club have taken to Twitter to wish the striker "all the best", adding: "Behave yourself big man, aye? 🤣"
Ouzy scored six goals in all competitions last season as his side finished sixth in the table.
His involvement in the show could impact his start to the season, with Edinburgh City set to kick off their Viaplay Cup group stage against Kelty Hearts on July 19.
The capital club also host Premiership side Hibernian in a friendly tomorrow (Saturday).
A source told MailOnline: "Ouzy is handsome, charming, and is looking to settle down… so he is everything the girls are looking for and more.
"Producers are hoping he will turn heads and they predict sparks will fly between him and Ella, given he is certainly her type.
"Ella knows that Tyrique will be tempted by the Casa Amor arrivals, he's the villa's biggest flirt, and there's no reason why she shouldn't pursue other options."
