EDITORS COMMENTS
Justin Fashanu, a trailblazer on the football pitch, immerses himself in a Manchester City team training session on a crisp winter day, 27th December 1988. This print by Albert Cooper captures the essence of Fashanu's dedication and passion for the beautiful game during his time with Manchester City. In this snapshot from the vibrant 1980s era, Fashanu stands out among his teammates as he showcases his skills and athleticism. The intensity in his eyes reflects his unwavering determination to excel in every aspect of the sport. As one of the few openly gay professional footballers at that time, Fashanu faced immense challenges both on and off the field but never let them hinder his pursuit of greatness. This image serves as a powerful reminder of Fashanu's significant contribution to breaking down barriers within football. His courage paved the way for future generations to embrace their true selves without fear or prejudice. Albert Cooper's masterful composition not only encapsulates an iconic moment in Manchester City's history but also immortalizes Justin Fashanu as an emblematic figure who defied societal norms with grace and resilience. This photograph is more than just a glimpse into a training session; it symbolizes hope, strength, and progress within sports.
