I grew up to love sport and art. My father was a semi professional boxer and ex footballer, my mother was a very good track and field athlete back in her teenage years.
I was introduced to football by my parents, we would always watch national football games on television together, then later I will go outside and toss my ball around with friends or neighbors, I’ve loved it ever since.
