Rangers fan uses Tinder profile in bid to find Seville accommodation ahead of Europa League final

A Rangers fan desperate for a place to stay in Seville has been hailed as a "genius" for his plan to find a room.

The cheeky Scot set up a dating profile on Tinder in a bid to find a Spanish host after making the journey abroad to watch the Light Blues take on Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League final on Wednesday.

In a Love Actually-style profile, Connor has shared a variety of photos wearing Rangers gear, with a pleading message written on pieces of paper.

Connor's message, written in Spanish, reads: "Hello Madam, my name is Connor and I’m a Rangers fan in Seville for the final.

"I’m desperately searching for a place to stay

"I am desperately looking for a place to stay. Hotels cost more than 600 euros so if you have a free bed or a sofa I can sleep on, it would be a big help.

"I’d be prepared to pay for this service. Thank you. Come on Rangers!"

The 23-year-old has since gone viral on Twitter for his efforts, with one user hoping to help him.

One local has since shared his profile online, with the caption "tinder >>> airbnb".

He added that he was waiting for Connor to respond to his message and urged anyone who knew him to inform him he had a new like.

The post has racked up over 35,000 likes as users were left in stitches.

One person described Connor as a "hero" while another said "this wins tbh".

One user wrote: "Please someone take him he looks super nice."

And another posted: "What a guy, I hope he gets lodging."
