Despite Dennis Wise’s reputation as a no-nonsense midfielder, his son Henry plays in a more advanced, creative role in the middle of the pitch.

Wise captained Chelsea at the start of the glory years and his son aims to follow in his famous father’s footsteps as he begins his career with Arsene Wenger’s side.

Henry Wise joined QPR as a youngster but was wanted by a number of other clubs in the Barclays Premier League after emerging as a genuine talent in the game.
