Nike One-on-one: Clint Dempsey Takes Us Fishing

 

Every footballer has his way of relaxing outside of the game. Playing video games and hitting the golf course are the usual hobbies. But for US soccer dude and Tottenham Hotspur striker Clint Dempsey there's nothing better than lounging about in a boat, bass fishing!

Swapping the limelight and media glare of the Premier League for the tranquillity of a lake might not be every footballer's idea of the perfect day off. Dynamic as the come on the field, Dempsey takes a more chilled-out approach to life away from the game.





"Fishing is important to me because it reminds me of growing up. My family used to go on camping trips and always be together doing that kind of stuff. The game, it can consume you and it's a lot of pressure. So for me it's being able to shut that off for a little bit and relax and get back to what I used to do as a kid." - Clint Dempsey.
