Pressure with Gregory van der Wiel

Gregory van der Wiel

Behind every great career is a person you’ve never truly met. On Pressure, Gregory van der Wiel sits down with people who reached the top of their field to talk about what success really costs: the pressure, fear, sacrifice, setbacks and identity behind the performance. These are not traditional interviews. They are honest conversations shaped by someone who lived it himself, from Ajax and PSG to the 2010 World Cup Final, and the difficult years that followed. This is the side of success that never makes the broadcast.

    Edgar Davids: "I Played My Career At 25% Less" | Gregory van der Wiel

    Edgar Davids doesn't do interviews. He did this one.We talked about the thing nobody in football talks about properly: who you are when the game isn't there to tell you.He came up on the streets of Amsterdam North, won the Champions League at 22, played for Juventus, Barcelona, Milan, Inter and Tottenham, and made 74 appearances for the Netherlands. Along the way: an eye condition that almost ended it, a ban that followed him, and a career spent at the top of the hardest league in the world.I asked him about pressure, about the 25%, about Zidane, and about what he'd tell his younger self. I also told him something about my own career I've never said out loud.
