Sol Campbell is one of the most famous players in North London, due to the fact that he made a switch from Tottenham Hotspur to Arsenal in 2001. Spurs fan labelled him a Judas and to this day he receives abuse from some of them. However, with the success that the striker achieved with Arsenal, he could not care less.

Arsene Wenger loved Campbell as a defender, and the former England international repaid that faith in kind. The centre-back was an integral part of the team which made history as they went an entire Premier League season unbeaten in 2003-04. Apart from this, Campbell won the FA Cup twice and the Premier League once more, and established himself as one of the best defenders in England.

Campbell's move across these two rivals is still one of the most shocking transfers in Premier League history, and it must sting Spurs fan to see the trophies which their former player won with the Gunners.
