EPISODE 29 - Matt Wells

Off The Shelf

Joining Milesy and Daws this week is Men's First Team assistant coach - Matt Wells!

With Spurs royalty coursing through his veins from his grandfather, a certain double winner, Matt recounts the start to his Spurs journey which saw him signed at eight years old and progress through our Academy to earn a professional contract.

Discussing his early years in Spurs Lodge, Chigwell, 'Wellsy' looks back on his memories in our youth system like the story of scrubbing Edgar Davids' boots 🧼 to then having to deal with serious injury setbacks just as he turned professional before embarking on a coaching career.

Wellsy takes us through this journey in and out of football - carveries and all - to his invaluable youth coaching experience in a fruitful time for our Academy, and onto his time working as a coach with former Spurs player Scott Parker during his management spells domestically and overseas 🌍

He then discusses the call last season from our interim Head Coach Ryan Mason to join his First Team coaching set up before staying on as Assistant Coach this term and working under Ange Postecoglou and the fascinating working dynamic under our Head Coach.

An unmissable episode as we delve into the mind of an important member of our Men's First Team coaching staff!
