Glasgow Warriors wing Sean Maitland reveals his excitement at the upcoming British and Irish Lions tour.

Glasgow Warriors wing Sean Maitland has admitted that he cannot wait for the British and Irish Lions tour to begin next month.

The 24-year-old, who joined up with the 37-man squad for a medical on Monday, has also revealed that he wants to prove himself on the tour.

"It's awesome. Six months ago who would have thought that I'd be here in a Lions polo and being surrounded by all these great men. It's just crazy how it's all worked out," he told Sky Sports News.

"I've been like a little boy in a candy shop. The amount of gear we've got is absolutely crazy. I've only been here for half an hour so there's more to come and I can't wait.

"There's five games before the first Test so everyone has got a chance. Everyone has got a shot. I think for me just to be myself, having a good time and just trying to prove myself and have some fun."

The tournament gets underway on June 1.
