Bradley Wright-Phillips

Footballer, Bradley Wright-Phillips was born on 12th March 1985, in Lewisham, London.

England international Shaun Wright-Phillips is Bradley's half-brother.

Bradley is the adopted son of the famous Arsenal striker, Ian Wright.

Bradley Wright-Phillips was given his Premiership debut for Manchester City in December 2004 against Middlesbrough when he came on with 14 minutes left and after only 3 minutes he turned skilfully in the box and scored a great goal.

Manchester City manager at that time, Kevin Keegan said, "He has that ability to score goals and is probably a better finisher than his brother, Shaun. The beauty of him is that he doesn't need to be taught how to finish. He is a real predator, a natural goalscorer and he reminds me of his dad, Ian. He still needs to learn but he is going in the right way."

Bradley Wright-Phillips made 17 appearances for Manchester City in the 2004-2005 season. The following year, including substitutions, Bradley Wright-Phillips played in 23 matches for Manchester City.

In the summer of 2006, Southampton snapped up Bradley Wright-Phillips on a three-year deal after a transfer from Manchester City for an undisclosed sum.
