Hearts winger Driver gives up "fortune" to join England U21s

Hearts winger Andy Driver has revealed he's lost a fortune on a cancelled holiday to make England's U21 European Championship.

Driver is not concerned about losing 'a fortune' on cancelled holidays to Barbados and Las Vegas - because he now has a chance to shine for England in the European U21 Championship.

Driver, 21, had not been expecting to make the final 23-man squad for the tournament in Sweden.

He booked trips away, which cannot be refunded. Driver said: "I was ready for my holidays. I was off to Barbados with my girlfriend and I'd booked Las Vegas, so I've lost a fortune. But I'm delighted."
