The name Will Amis won't mean an awful lot to you. But for Premier League stars Declan Rice, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and John Terry all have him on speed dial.

Amis, just 17, is the founder of vintage boot supplier Classix Collection and boosts some of English football's biggest names as clients.

'It all started from a Facebook appreciation page for vintage boots and I managed to source someone a pair of Nike Mango Superfly 4s,' Amis explained to Sportsmail.

'Now I just want the business to grow and grow. It's something I'm so passionate about.'

And now he is the premier supplier of classic football boots to English football's most recognisable stars.

Having managed to source 22 pairs of Adidas Predators 94s from a Turkish sports store that was closing down.

Word quickly spread and the orders came flooding in. Chelsea legend Terry took two off his hands and Rice also purchased a pair.

Of the 22 earliest edition Predators, Amis only has four left.

In addition to Terry, Rice and Maitland-Niles, entrepreneur Amis also boosts Andreas Pereira, Saido Berahino, Lyle Taylor and Mbwana Samatta among others.

Amis' obsession with football boots began when his father Lee gave him a pair of his old Predator Precisions.

But even the footwear most synonymous with David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane in the 2000s aren't a patch on the most requested boost.

'Our most popular boot? Definitely the Adidas Predator Power Swerve,' revealed Amis.
