S02 Ep12: Yinka Tomori
Manage episode 326601610 series 2943124
The parent.
"See a man, diligent in his ways, he shall stand before kings ..."
Those words from Yinka Tomori, to his son Fikayo, have echoed throughout the young man's life and have seen play, and succeed, with Chelsea, AC Milan and England but, more than that, the words of his father have taught him humility, responsibility and to focus always on being a good man.
The pathway towards being a professional footballer is fraught and difficult for the player but also for the parent. There are so many wise words in this episode and many lessons that any parent, with a talented son or daughter, should heed.
This is the parent's story ...
