Anfield Icon shares experiences at Leaders

Tue 9th Aug 2011 | Football Industry Events

Jamie Carragher, Liverpool FC vice-captain and former England international, will be addressing 1000 senior delegates attending the 4thLeaders in Football conference taking place at Chelsea FC, London on 5th and 6th October 2011.

Carragher will be joining a long list of other high profile speakers including Dr Michel D’Hooghe, Member, FIFA Executive Committee; Bruce Buck, Chairman, Chelsea FC; David Bernstein, Independent Chairman, The Football Association; Jean-Luc Dehaene, former Prime Minister of Belgium and now Chairman, UEFA Financial Fair Play Panel; Jim Boyce, Member, FIFA Executive Committee; Peter Coates Owner, Stoke City FC and Bet 365; Niall Quinn, Chairman, Sunderland AFC ; Pierluigi Collina, Former Referee, Serie A and FIFA; Greg Clarke, Chairman, The Football League.
