Laura Woods is shocked by an odd request from an Arsenal fan.

 

Laura Woods complied with an odd request made on Friday night during Sheppey United vs. Walsall FA Cup first round match.

Four divisions below their opponents, the Kent team led 1-0 at the Tiger Stadium but fell behind 4-1 thanks to goals from Ross Tierney, Douglas James-Taylor, Thomas Andrew Knowles, and Isaac Hutchinson.

A day after taking home the Sports Presenter of the Year trophy, Woods hosted the live coverage of the match on ITV.

Although the 36-year-old is an ardent Arsenal fan, it appears that she wasn't the only Gooner there at the match on Friday.

Amazingly, Woods was approached by another Arsenal supporter who was nearby and requested an autograph.

Although that is a typical request, the supporter had really asked her to sign their tattoo of Arsenal.

The presenter for TNT Sports has "Laura Woods x" tattooed on his leg.

She posted an image of herself holding the tattoo on Instagram along with a laughing emoji.

"Never signed an Arsenal tattoo before, but I liked it," the caption said.

In her 13 years at Sky Sports, Woods began as a runner and worked her way up to major presenting responsibilities.

She is currently among the most well-known and identifiable broadcasters in the industry.

In addition to hosting the FA Cup and women's football games on ITV, Woods was the face of TNT Sports' Champions League coverage. She also worked for talkSPORT and DAZN.

The Sun claims that Woods' current net worth is approximately £2 million, making her the only female sports broadcaster in the UK with a higher net worth than Gabby Logan.

The veteran broadcaster at the BBC is rumored to be worth £4 million, which is the same as that of Sky Sports host David Jones.
