Founded in the rain-soaked year of 1886, Motherwell resides in the heart of Scotland, where they've been kicking the ball about at Fir Park Stadium for the best part of their long history.

Their playing squad, brimming with the verve of 48 players, bolsters an admirable market value of approximately £8 million, so states Transfermarkt. The spry group of lads incongruously maintains an average age of just 23, offering promising undertones of development waiting to be untapped.

This season, the 'Well has been matching wits in three competitions. It's been a somewhat fruitful endeavour, with a notable 3rd place standing in the Premiership and reaching the semi-finals of the League Cup. Their Scottish Cup campaign, however, saw them hanging up their boots in the fourth round, much to the chagrin of their faithful supporters.
