Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka joined Bakary Sako and the Palace for Life Foundation in a school visit earlier in the week and afterwards, he spoke with Premier League Productions.
In the interview, he opened up about the significance of being a role model to children, his own source of inspiration growing up and about life in the public eye.
Wan-Bissaka grew up in New Addington, playing as a winger from the age of 11 in the Palace Academy. Though his rise to success was meteoric and sudden, it came from years of dedicated work and could never have been predicted by even those who knew him best.
