Author, Ian Wright

Format, Paperback / softback

Number of Pages, 384


Ian Wright, Arsenal legend, England striker and TV pundit extraordinaire, is one of the most interesting and relevant figures in modern football. His journey from a South London council estate to national treasure is everybody's dream. From Sunday morning football directly to Crystal Palace, from 'boring, boring Arsenal' to inside the Wenger Revolution, from Saturday afternoons on the pitch to Saturday evenings on primetime television, from a week in prison to inspiring youth offenders, Ian will reveal all about his extraordinary life and career. Ian will also frankly discuss how retirement affects footballers, why George Graham deserves a statue, social media, the Premiership vs the First Division, why music matters, breaking Arsenal's goal-scoring record, racism, the unadulterated joy of playing alongside Dennis Bergkamp and, of course, what he thinks about Tottenham. Not a standard footballer's autobiography, MY LIFE IN FOOTBALL is a thoughtful and gripping insight into a Highbury Hero and one of the greatest sports stars of recent years.
