Stick to Football

In this episode of Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet, the team is joined by none other than Ruud Gullit — Ballon d'Or winner, footballing trailblazer, and one of the game’s all-time icons. Ruud takes us on a fascinating trip down memory lane, opening up about what it was like being the first Dutch manager in the Premier League, his time at the helm of Chelsea and Newcastle, and how he made the leap from player to manager — including all the highs, lows, and lessons along the way. Of course, we couldn’t let him go without chatting about his incredible playing career. From growing up under the influence of Johan Cruyff, to forming that legendary trio with Marco van Basten and Frank Rijkaard at AC Milan, Ruud shares stories that shaped an era of football. He also reflects on the cultural impact of his signature dreadlocks and how his unique style helped inspire a new generation of players. It’s a rare chance to hear from one of the sport’s true greats — a man whose passion for football still burns bright and whose impact is still being felt today.
