Rio Ferdinand joins The Sports Agents to discuss
the stigma around mental health in sports and a new campaign
aimed at helping children to understand their emotions.

As more Premier League stars open up about their own mental
health struggles, Gabby & Mark asked the former Manchester
United defender if his old club has been equipped to help players
like Marcus Rashford & Jadon Sancho.

Later, we're joined by Sancho's mentor and former youth coach
Sayce Holmes-Lewis to talk more about the
mentality of a prodigious six-year-old Sancho, how Dortmund
helped him to rediscover his confidence and the extreme pressures
on young aspiring male and female players.

Plus, a weather report from a leaky Old Trafford after Mark is
soaked on TV duty and Gabby tells us about Phoebe Gill - the
teenage runner who just shocked the Athletics world.
