    Troy Parrott | Inner Drive - Part 2

    27/05/2026 | 36 mins.
    Troy Parrott wrote himself into Irish sporting folklore last November following his two goals against Portugal which kept Ireland’s dreams alive of qualifying for their first men’s World Cup in 24 years.
    He then went one further after bagging a hat-trick against Hungary in Budapest, where his last-minute goal sent the country into pandemonium.
    It wasn’t to be in Prague, despite his efforts of scoring a penalty both in normal time and in the shootout as Ireland’s dreams were ultimately dashed.
    However, this has been the year of all years for the boy from the north inner city.
    A Dutch Cup win with AZ Alkmaar, added to a record goal-scoring season, means that Parrott is on his way to the elite echelons of the footballing world.
    But how did he get here?
    Inner Drive tells the story of how Parrott made it all the way from Stella Maris to Belvedere and then to his first English club, Tottenham Hotspur.
    In episode two, Parrott explains how he ended up in the Netherlands after some varied loan spells in the English football pyramid.
    There is also the feeling of putting on the Ireland shirt at senior level for the first time and why that means so much to him.
    Prague, Budapest and Dublin were huge nights for the country, and Parrott was at the centre of it all but what did it feel like for him?
    And what is next ahead of a huge summer from a club perspective?
    Plus his mother Jennifer explains why family is so important to him and in his upbringing.
