If they can face the prospect of yet more celebratory alcohol, Leicester City fans will be able to toast team captain Wes Morgan with a limited edition Captain Morgan bottle, following his side’s victory in the Premier League title race.
The special edition commemorative bottle features the Jamaican international dressed as Captain Morgan in royal blue and white to match Leicester City’s home kit. The label also features the footballer’s signature and an updated 2016 medallion.
The bottle came to fruition following a Twitter exchange after Leicester’s draw with Manchester United on Sunday. The spirit brand congratulated Morgan on his performance. The footballer responded: “I’m assuming my bottle is in the post?”
Rhys Love, Senior Brand Manager, Captain Morgan said: “Captains lead by example and we are thrilled to have one of the greatest captains of recent times, Wes Morgan who coincidentally shares our name, become the centre of a historic sporting moment. We have created a one-off commemorative Captain Wes Morgan bottle to celebrate his incredible title win triumph as the club’s skipper. We salute Leicester City and their own Captain Morgan.”
