He will chat about his illustrious career with Arsenal, Aston Villa, Middlesbrough, Portsmouth and England including matches, dressing room stories, managers, fall outs and more.

Paul has conquered both league titles and cup wins, and millions of TV viewers recently watched his unsuccessful bid to net the Strictly Glitterball!

His well documented mental health struggles and battles to overcome addictions to alcohol, drugs and gambling will also be discussed.

Since retiring in 2006, Merson has thrived as a Sky Sports pundit and match reporter on Soccer Saturday.
