Campbell talks about being attacked by Tottenham fans: No one has apologized until now. This is very similar to what happened to Figo

The 12th round of the Premier League will feature a North London derby, with Arsenal facing Tottenham at home. In the summer of 2001, after Sol Campbell's contract with Tottenham expired, he chose to join Tottenham's rival Gunners, which made Tottenham fans extremely angry. In a recent interview, Campbell said that he has not received an apology yet.

He said: "David Dunn, the vice-chairman of Arsenal at the time, made me feel protected. He promised to help me and would always support me. He said, join us, you will become part of the Gunners family, and we will protect you."

Talking about the attacks he received, Campbell said: "Now some people have gone into hiding, and many people look back and may say, 'I was What were you doing? I can’t believe I did that.’ I know the fans were incited, but the people in power were indifferent and allowed the situation to unfold. Now they don’t dare to admit it, don’t want to apologize, and they don’t say it shouldn’t happen.

“People who can get on TV, and politicians, are involved, and they all get away with it. No one wants to remember how they treated me, how they treated me with contempt, and so on. No one stood up to protect me.

"People with background just turned away and buried their heads in the sand, thinking that things would pass or be forgotten over time, but there just wasn't an apology. It's really sad because my family was affected too. In my opinion, Figo's move from Barcelona The situation was the same when he arrived at Real Madrid, and this level of treatment will never happen again in football."

Talking about the memory of the North London Derby, Campbell mentioned Henry's classic goal in the 3-0 victory over Tottenham in 2002. He said: "It was an incredible run that ran almost three-quarters of the pitch. It was probably one of the best games I've ever seen. "For a player to create such an incredible moment in such a way in a derby, that goal was incredibly impressive. And seeing it all with your own eyes is as beautiful as poetry. "
