Sol Campbell

Sol Campbell has taken a lighthearted poke at Tottenham ahead of tomorrow night’s North London derby by rekindling memories of his move to Arsenal.

Campbell is still a hated figure with Spurs fans after swapping White Hart Lane for Highbury in 2001.

Having come through the ranks at Tottenham to become captain and arguably one of the best centre-halves in the world, Campbell stunned world football by moving across the capital to join the club’s bitter rivals.

As he insinuates in the advert, it would prove to be a shrewd move as he went on to win two Premier League and two FA Cup winners’ medals.

In the advert for Google Pixel, he removes his white jumper for a red one and says “big moves pay off.

He added: “It’s not like you’re doing anything outrageous, you’re just switching to something much, much better.”

The end of the commercial suggests he was talking about his washing all along but football fans know better!
