Merson had a hugely successful playing career, representing England 21 times alongside an 11-year stay with Arsenal during which they were crowned champions of England twice, FA Cup winners, League Cup winners, and European Cup Winners’ Cup winners.

In his later career, Merson turned out for the likes of Middlesbrough, Aston Villa, and Portsmouth before launching a career in broadcasting. Merson has been a mainstay on Sky Sports’ Soccer Saturday programme as a match reporter and pundit, and recently starred in Harry’s Heroes: The Full English on ITV.

Merson has spoken openly in recent years about struggles with mental health and addiction, sharing his story as a means of helping others overcome their own struggles.
