Graeme Souness has shared heartfelt stories from his youth, recounting a memorable encounter with an England football legend in an Essex nightclub during his appearance on the Mail’s Everything I Know About Me podcast.
As a young midfielder honing his skills at Spurs, he spent his evenings in London and Essex, despite having a limited budget.
He highlights two former World Cup champions who had a significant impact during that period.
One of those figures was Arsenal’s Alan Ball Jr., who would often buy him drinks and keep an eye on him during nights out.
The other was the iconic Bobby Moore, a true legend of English football.
Souness reflects on Moore’s warmth and generosity, expressing how he felt welcomed as a young player in an unfamiliar environment. ‘He was a remarkable man,’ Souness recalls.
