Edwin van der Sar “Senne Reminds me of Myself”
Episode 1
Thursday, 7 May, 2026
Season 16 of the Fozcast is here - and we are back with a bang! 🔥 To kick things off, we’re joined by one of the greatest goalkeepers to ever play the game. A man who won multiple Premier League’s and TWO Champions League’s - someone Ben knows very well having been teammates with him back in 2008… it's Edwin van der Sar! 🧤 Edwin takes us right back to the beginning - to that iconic Ajax side of 1995 where he won his first ever Champions League alongside some of the greatest players of a generation, including Clarence Seedorf, Marc Overmars and Edgar Davids. A truly special team. 👀 He then opens up about his time at Juventus, and the moment the club replaced him with a certain Gianluigi Buffon - and how that decision ultimately led him to Manchester United, where he went on to win SEVEN major trophies. 🏆 If you love the GK episodes, this one is an absolute must watch.
