Sol Campbell Sparks Controversy in New Ad

Sol Campbell has reignited old tensions among Tottenham Hotspur fans by starring in a Google Pixel advert that humorously references his controversial switch to Arsenal in 2001. In the ad, Campbell dons a white jumper before revealing a red one, suggesting that 'big moves pay off' and urging viewers to consider switching allegiances, paralleling his own infamous transfer. Despite winning two Premier League titles and three FA Cups during his time at Arsenal, Spurs fans have long labeled him a 'Judas' for leaving the club after publicly pledging to stay. The timing of the advert, released just before the north London derby, adds to its provocative nature, as Campbell cheekily suggests that staying with Tottenham will yield no significant changes. His comments in the ad, which cleverly relate to both football and a playful take on laundry, are a reminder of his enduring legacy as a divisive figure in football. While some may find humor in his performance, many Spurs supporters still harbor resentment towards him for his departure.
