About Micky Hazard

Michael Hazard (born 5 February 1960) is an English football coach and former professional footballer. He played as a central midfielder notably in the top flight for Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea. He also played in the Football League for Portsmouth, and Swindon Town. His second spell with Spurs brought numerous appearances in the Premier League. Following retirement, he had a brief spell at Crystal Palace and later had a three-year spell as manager of non-league side Hadley. == Playing career == Growing up in Sunderland, Hazard began playing football with his friends and later joining his local school team. During one of these matches, he was spotted by a scout from London-based club Tottenham Hotspur but was too young to be offered a trial. He was initially invited to train with Spurs when aged 14 and continued to have week-long sessions with the club until, aged 16, he moved to London to join the youth squad as an apprentice. Prone to bouts of homesickness, Hazard ran home six times during the next two years until finally settling at the club. Hazard signed a professional contract with Spurs and made his League debut in a 3–0 victory versus Everton on 19 April 1980 aged 20.
