Matt Le Tissier
Transform football teams with Matt Le Tissier, speaker and football legend. Matt works with organisations to deliver insights on sporting excellence and media expertise, leveraging his Southampton legacy and Sky Sports prominence.
Matt is undoubtedly one of the greatest footballers to have ever donned Southampton's red and white jersey. His exceptional creativity on the field made him stand out in the English game. Throughout the 1990s, he mesmerised spectators with his magical skills, leaving them in awe. During his remarkable sixteen-year stint with the Saints, he scored an impressive 209 goals in 540 appearances, a testament to his undeniable talent.
Not only did Matt make a name for himself at Southampton, but he also represented England on the international stage. However, it is quite disappointing that someone of his calibre only earned eight caps from 1994 to 1998. His talent deserved much more recognition and opportunities at the national level. After retiring from professional football, Matt transitioned into the sports media world.
He became the star of Sky Sports' 'Gillette Soccer Saturday' and continues to share his insights and expertise as a columnist for skysports.com. Even when he's not actively involved in the football scene, Matt can be found honing his skills on the golf course, where he maintains an extremely competitive handicap. Overall, Matt's contributions to football, both as a player and now as a media personality, are commendable. His legacy as one of Southampton's finest and most creative footballers will forever be remembered.
Matt brings a wealth of experience from his illustrious football career and insightful media presence, offering unique perspectives on teamwork, perseverance, and achieving excellence. His engaging storytelling ability captures audiences, making complex concepts accessible and inspiring. Booking Matt guarantees an event filled with valuable lessons, motivational anecdotes, and a deep dive into the world of elite sports and media.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
