S02 EP6: Zafar Iqbal

The doctor. As a British Pakistani, growing up in Rochdale, there was only one thing drummed into young Zaf by his Dad: education. That work ethic, and education over everything else, meant that he was able to beat a path as a successful doctor but it was the combination of that career with his other passion, football, that brings him to the pod. Spells at Leyton Orient, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and now Crystal Palace means that Zaf is one of the most recognisable doctors working in Premier League football.

Zaf talks about being a British-Pakistani who loves football, heart conditions and his work in the game.
