In his brutally honest and inspiring memoir, Troy shares his experiences growing up on Europe's largest council estate, where his mother worked three jobs, and his father, a notorious drug dealer, was frequently in and out of prison. He reveals tales of self-sabotage, including not showing up to Aston Villa's football trials as a teenager, playing while drunk, and even being imprisoned for affray at the height of his career. Despite these challenges, Troy never gave up, even when it meant playing professional football with an ankle tag. He went on to score 20+ goals in three successive seasons, becoming the Club Captain, an FA Cup finalist, promotion winner, and Watford's record scorer. Furthermore, he became an outspoken player advocate and a sought-after voice on football and footballers today. Engaging, endearing, and insightful, this book is where Troy comes to terms with his turbulent past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 260g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196 x 126 x 30 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781788402774\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Troy Deeney","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100211015930,"sku":"9781788402774","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1657280407830_book.jpg?v=1657401168","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/troy-deeney-redemption-my-story-9781788402774","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
