Where are you born, and when did you start to play football?
I was born in the south of London in a hospital called Mayday in 1997. I first started taking interest in football when I was 5 but only signed for my first Sunday league team at the age of 7.
You played for Chelsea before you joined Wolves. What were you thinking when you signed for wolves?
I was very lucky to get out of Chelsea and I was and still am extremely grateful to Wolves for giving me an opportunity to come here and improve myself and hopefully one day play for the first team.
Is there any difference between how Chelsea and Wolves academy works?
There isn’t much difference to be honest, they are both big clubs and both like to play good football. However Chelsea like to pamper their players and I don’t think this is the best thing when you’re trying to become a professional footballer.
What do you think about Wolves academy and your team this new season?
I think the academy has a new feel to it this season as we have a new U21’s coach and a new U18’s coach. This has brought a new lease of life to our academy and really changed the way we play football for the better.
Which match for Wolves are you most satisfied with?
I would have to say our match earlier this year with Blackburn where I scored a powerful header from a corner.
What is your own aim for the future?
My aim for the future is to break into the Wolves Senior team and also to play in the Premier League.
When do you think you make your first senior team appearance for Wolves?
You can never say exactly when you will get the opportunity but when I am ready I will know and so will the coach. But I am aiming to play for Wolves by when I am turning 19.
What do you think about our chances in the championship this season?
I think we started the season really well but are unfortunate to be going through a bad spell at the moment. Despite that im sure the lads can shake that off and carry on to finish in a respectable position in the top half of the table.
Do you have any favourite players in Wolves?
I have players that I look up to at Wolves but I wouldn’t say any of them are my favourite. If I was to say I like learning from someone it would be Richard Stearman. I admire the way he reads that game and leads.
Any other favourite player outside Wolves?
Outside Wolves my three favourite players would have to be Vincent Kompany, Thiago Silva and David Luiz.
Do you know any Swedish players?
I love Zlatan Ibrahimovic and also Sebastian Larsson who plays here in England for Sunderland.
Who is the world’s best player at the moment?
Lionel Messi.
