Famous Footballer's Reaction To Seeing His Childhood Mentor Will Bring You To Tears

January 27, 2017

For those who don't know, Ian Wright was an excellent professional footballer who won a title with Arsenal and played for England's national team. Now, at 53, he's still involved in the game as a radio and television personality.

Ian owes a lot of his success to the man who first taught him to kick a ball, a former teacher he has not seen in over 20 years.

I love the way in the instant he recognizes who it is, he takes his hat off out of respect and calls him Mr. Pigden like a school child would refer to their teacher.
