Nigel Winterburn (born 11 December 1963) is an English retired professional footballer, coach, and current television personality for BT Sport.[3]
Winterburn played primarily as a left back from 1981 to 2003. He is best known for his role alongside Tony Adams, Steve Bould, Martin Keown, and Lee Dixon, forming a celebrated defensive line for Arsenal in the Premier League and European football during the 1990s. He also played in the top flight for West Ham United and in the Football League for Wimbledon, as well as being contracted to Birmingham City and Oxford United. He earned two caps for England between 1989 and 1993.
During the 2008–09 season, Winterburn briefly joined a part of the coaching staff at Blackburn Rovers under Paul Ince but was subsequently removed from his position and subsequently replaced by Sam Allardyce.
