Book Rio Ferdinand
Rio Ferdinand is one of England's most decorated footballers and widely ranked among the country's best defenders ever. A product of the West Ham United youth system, he made his Premier League debut in 1996 and was voted Hammer of the Year the next season. In 1997 he became England's youngest-ever defender at the time when he won his first senior cap against Cameroon. Leeds United signed him in 2000 and made him club captain in 2001, and in 2002 he joined Manchester United, where he won the Premier League in his very first season and went on to collect a long run of major honors, earning four PFA Team of the Year selections across five seasons. He won 81 England caps between 1997 and 2011 and was named to three World Cup squads. He later finished his career at Queens Park Rangers. Ferdinand is in both the English Football Hall of Fame and the Premier League Hall of Fame (2023), spent a decade as a TNT Sports pundit and wrote the book 2Sides. He brings sharp insight and big-club stories to every audience.
