Brady was on the Late Late Show on Friday night and reminisced about his storied career in football
Liam Brady has told how Giovanni Trapattoni once helped him wire a new sound system after the Irishman's move to Turin.One of Ireland's most talented ever players moved from Arsenal to Juventus in 1980 and it was in Turin that he struck up a close bond with Trapattoni.Brady, 67, helped Trapattoni's Juve side win two Serie A titles before the pair were reunited many years later when the legendary Italian manager took the Ireland job and hired the Dubliner as his assistant boss.
But Brady remembers when he only arrived in Turin and Trapattoni went to great lengths to help him settle into the city. "We went to Milan to the Sony factory and he got me this very good, and top-of-the-range sound system for a very good Trap price, a very good Trap price."So, I went in to see him the next day, and I remember saying, 'thanks, Trap. I got a great HIFI system - top of the range -but I can't put it together.'"He was lying on my floor, putting all these wires together, there were a million wires - he was putting them all together.
"And I said to Sarah , 'you ever think you'd see a coach do that for his player? - but that's the kind of man he was."Get the latest sports headlines straight to your inbox by signing up for free email alerts.
