Aden Durde: How a Londoner cracked the N...

GLOBAL
About this episode

Aden Durde became the first British-born coach to win a Super Bowl when the Seattle Seahawks masterminded a dominant display in California in February.

His story is almost unheard of in sport - from coaching grassroots level here in UK - to the very top of the NFL.

But what has made him so successful? How did a chance advert in a North London shop spark his career? And as the Premier League's managerial 'merry-go-round' starts to feel more like a circus - does our beautiful game still have a lot to learn?

Gabby and Mark are joined by Aden for all that and more.
