Just 100 of the collector-style notes have been printed. The design integrates traditional Scottish currency elements, featuring the iconic Forth Bridge alongside imagery of Scott McTominay’s famous overhead-kick goal.

The initiative aims to raise vital funds for the bank’s charity partner, Crisis Scotland, supporting its mission to completely end homelessness in the country by 2040. Proceeds will be generated through an online auction running until Friday 26 June, which includes a pair of signed boots from the SSC Napoli midfielder, alongside a public raffle with a suggested £10 entry donation.

Additionally, members of the public will have the opportunity to win the commemorative notes for free by attempting to crack the code at two pop-up high-street ‘vaults’. These promotional hubs will appear at Glasgow Queen Street Station on Saturday 30 May and Edinburgh’s St James Quarter on Wednesday 17 June.

Emma Noble, chair of the Scottish Executive Committee at Bank of Scotland, which in 1696 became the first bank in Europe to successfully issue paper currency, said: “Securing qualification in such dramatic fashion is a moment fans will never forget, and we wanted to mark it in a way that’s rooted in Scottish identity.

“Like football, banknotes have long been part of our country’s story, and this limited edition £20 note combines those two traditions with a modern, creative twist.

“Scott’s overhead kick is already regarded as one of the nation’s greatest ever goals. It’s been a privilege to work with him to bring it to life in such a unique way, and we’re grateful for his support in helping raise funds for Crisis as they work to end homelessness across Scotland.”

Scott McTominay, Scottish football hero, said: “Reaching the biggest stage of world football is something every player dreams of, and I know it means everything to our fans. Moments like that belong to everyone who follows the team, so seeing my goal featured on a Scottish banknote feels incredibly special.

“Being able to work with Bank of Scotland to turn it into something that also supports Crisis and the work they do to tackle homelessness makes me even more proud.”

Maeve McGoldrick, head of policy and communications at Crisis Scotland, said: “We know that homelessness is not inevitable and together we can end it. Funds raised through the auction and prize draw of this special banknote will help Crisis support people to rebuild their lives, while also campaigning for the changes needed to end all forms of homelessness in Scotland by 2040.

“We’re delighted to be part of a campaign that channels the energy of such an iconic Scottish football moment into practical support, helping more people to leave homelessness behind for good and creating a system where it can be prevented in the first place.“
