Former Premier League star Stephen Carr has largely left football behind since retiring in 2013, with the ex-Tottenham, Newcastle and Birmingham defender now running a chain of bars, restaurants and nightclubs in Spain.
During his playing career, Carr made the PFA's Premier League Team of the Year but he was forced to retire in 2013 due to a knee injury. Carr first got involved with La Sala while he was still playing, with football agent Rob Segal and his former Spurs teammate David Bentley also involved.
In an interview with Tottenham in 2021, the Irishman said he "moved to Spain straight away" to focus on the business after retiring and admitted he had no real interest in getting into coaching. "As a coach, you're in early and home late so you need to have a real desire and hunger," he said.
