Already the chemistry is evident, and already, ‘Road to Wembley’ is set to be a refreshing take on football coverage.
“We’re off to Wembley, we’re off to Wembley,” Richards gleams as the trailer opens while a disgruntled Keane waits for his life to arrive. “Take those flags off the car,” Keane adds before getting into the passenger seat.
The show will follow the two as they discuss their football careers, friendship, and the upcoming Euros. Episode one is due to air on Monday, which will have a significant focus on the forthcoming Euros and some of the biggest moments in history.
Fans have taken to social media to show their excitement, with many wondering why it has taken the duo so long to collaborate in this manner.
