The only thing was, I didn’t know which club it was.
It was a very strange experience, I have to say. Sat on that plane, having no clue at all what the future held for me, I couldn’t help but think back through my past, and how things had led me to that point.
A lot of it was by chance, really. When I was young, I started out with a small amateur club in the neighbourhood where I was living. Like a lot of youth football, it was pretty chaotic, lots of running and not a lot of actual football.
