Listen "Sol Campbell"
Episode Synopsis
Sol's choice of train journey is from Pretoria to Dar Es Salaam.
Sol Campbell is the ex-England international footballer who played for his country 73 times and ‘is the only player to have represented England in six consecutive major tournaments.
Campbell began his professional career with Tottenham Hotspur and then, in a contentious transfer, moved to their North London neighbours. His time at Arsenal proved successful. He won two Premier Leagues and two FA Cups, which included the league and FA Cup double. He was part of the team known as The Invincibles for their undefeated 2003–04 Premier League season. From Arsenal, he joined Portsmouth and captained them to victory in the 2008 FA Cup Final.
He has constantly remained something of an enigma and feels deeply misunderstood by the majority who know him by name.
