Autor/-in: Nedum Onuoha

Nedum Onuoha first appeared for Manchester City at the age of seventeen, and went on to play more than 400 games in a professional career that ended in 2020 at Real Salt Lake in the MLS. He was captain of the England Under 21s and QPR, where he spent more than six years. Born in Nigeria, Nedum moved to Manchester at the age of five, and was the first player to be signed by the City Academy. He grew up in a poor part of the city as his parents made huge sacrifices to give Nedum and his sisters a good education, and he carried on studying for his A-Levels after making his first team debut. He is now a sought-after pundit for a number of leading broadcasters.
