A highly-respected former Premier League player, England international and progressive young coach, Ugo suffered a cardiac arrest at our Training Centre on 20 April, 2017, and passed away in the early hours of the following morning.
His memory fondly lives on among his family and friends and throughout the football community, especially at Hotspur Way, where Club staff and young players who benefitted from Ugo’s tutelage gathered yesterday (Friday) to share memories of him and pay an informal tribute to one of the real students of the game.
In honour of his now famous last tweet that encouraged people to ‘do something kind’, a group of Academy players and staff will be volunteering at a local homeless shelter in the spirit of helping others.
