The 28-year-old athlete, who has won 6 gold and 4 silver medals in various championships around the globe, attended a Nike event in London last night – where he passed on advice to up to 75 young track and field hopefuls – will be sporting the unique NIKEiD Arsenal footwear this Friday at Crystal Palace, when he partakes in the 5000m event.
Farah, who has been an Arsenal fan since the age of 9, recently received a congratulatory message from Arsene Wenger for his efforts in the European Championships and wished him the best for tomorrow:
The Frenchman wrote:
‘Congratulations Mo, winning the 10,000m at the European Championships was a marvellous achievement. I know you are a passionate Arsenal fan and we are all hoping you can repeat the achievement in the 5,000m.’
