FOOTBALL fans will be able to have their picture taken with one of the most prestigious prizes in world football – the Barclays Premiership trophy – at the official opening of a recently refurbished bank in Worcester city centre.

The trophy, won by Manchester United last season, will be at Barclays in High Street on Monday.

Children and adults will be able to have their picture taken with it between 10am and 4pm. Branch manager Sarah Thompson said: “We are delighted to have the Barclays Premiership trophy at the branch to celebrate the official opening of the branch.

“Everyone is welcome to come down to the branch and have their photo taken with a trophy that Ryan Giggs held aloft last season.

“It's a great pleasure to offer this opportunity to our customers and football fans.

“The official opening will also offer free giveaways, raise money for Childline and be a general day of celebration.”
