Former wonderkid Nile Ranger: ”I was spending £3,000 a day at the casino”

The now 33-year-old Englishman Nile Ranger was predicted to have a promising career when he broke through at Newcastle United aged 18. However, he had a bad reputation and his career took a different turn. In a raw and honest podcast on Rising Ballers, Ranger opens up about his turbulent life both on and off the pitch and shares stories you will never hear from any other footballers. As a teenager, Nile Ranger was involved in an armed robbery and in 2017 he was jailed for fraud. In this podcast he speaks about his time behind bars and the impact it had on his career, his gambling addiction where he was spending £3,000 a day at casinos, punching his former teammate Andros Townsend and much more.
