A trio of Premier League icons took to the stage as their induction into the Premier League Hall of Fame was marked with a celebratory event at The Shard, London last night. [Wednesday 3 May, 2023].
Invincibles manager Arsène Wenger joined fellow 2023 inductees Rio Ferdinand and Petr Cech in attendance at the star-studded event hosted by Kelly Cates. The Premier League greats received medallions engraved with their names in front of an audience which included members of their family.
Famous football fans including actors Idris Elba and Micheal Ward, as well as broadcasters Gary Lineker, Jamie Redknapp and Reshmin Chowdhury were also present.
The Hall of Fame recognises and celebrates individuals who have an exceptional record of success and have significantly contributed to the Premier League since its inception in 1992.
It is the highest individual honour awarded by the League and all inductees have selected a charity which receives a £10,000 donation.
Sir Alex Ferguson, the Premier League’s most successful manager, joined former Arsenal captain and fellow 2023 inductee Tony Adams, in sharing a video message as the pair were unable to attend the event in person.
