Club legends visit supporters in Malta

Club legends Ledley King, Ossie Ardiles and Gary Mabbutt visited Malta this week to meet with members of our Official Supporter's Club and their community on the Mediterranean island ahead of the Visit Malta Cup in August.

The Visit Malta Cup sees our Men’s First Team face six-time European champions FC Bayern at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday 10 August, 5.30pm kick-off.

The trip began with a Q&A and meet & greet with members from our Official Supporters’ Club, Malta Spurs. The trio then paid a visit to San Gwann Primary School, meeting with Minister for Tourism Clayton Bartolo as well as staff and children from the school, before taking part in a training session for young people at a nearby grassroots football club, Sirens Football Nursery.

Finally, the group undertook a tour of the Official Supporters’ Club bar, the home of Malta Spurs, which hosts some iconic Spurs memorabilia from as far back as the 1940s. The legends also met with the CEO of the Malta Tourism Authority, Carlo Micallef.

Gary said: “It was great to be back in Malta again, my sixth visit to this beautiful country. I came before with my family, and our children loved the beaches as well as walking around the streets and restaurants in Valletta.

“The Visit Malta Cup is taking place just a week before the start of the new Premier League season and is going to be an incredible occasion.”

Ledley added: “We received such a warm welcome from everyone in Malta. It has been a brilliant couple of days, meeting with our fans and engaging with an important part of the Club’s wider community.”

Ossie said: “We were delighted to be in Malta to promote the match. I had been to the country three times before, and every time I have come here it has been absolutely beautiful.”
