In today’s episode of Stick to Football brought to you by Sky Bet, Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Jill Scott, Wayne Rooney, and Ian Wright are joined by England and Arsenal legend Sol Campbell for an honest and revealing conversation about his incredible career—on and off the pitch.
The panel dive into Sol’s early days at Tottenham Hotspur, the challenges he faced breaking through as a young player, and the controversies surrounding his highly publicised move to Arsenal. Sol opens up about becoming one of the best defenders in the world, winning titles, and playing a key role in Arsène Wenger’s iconic Invincibles team.
They also discuss what it takes to be a leader in football, the intense rivalries that defined an era, and how Sol dealt with media pressure throughout his career.
