Celebrities and thier agents work in mysterious ways.

Brendan Frasier for instance, tells us of his abuse - right when he has a film to promote and an oscar campaign to run.

Dele just happened to give the interview in July, when the transfer window was open, and Everton asked him to find a new club after a failed loan in Turkey. His agent was looking for another Premier League team to give him a lifeline.

Its incredible that given the talent that he had, that no club was willing to try him - even for free. Surely a Southampton or Ipswich or Fulham could have benefitted from his experience? That says a lot about what those clubs know about him - and what we as fans know.

Yeah but your logic is a bit stupid, if his sole aim was to entice a Premier League club to give him a multi million pound contract you don't go about it by bringing up personal shit from the past in fact that's exactly the opposite thing to do because you're opening yourself up to the world and look mentally fragile.

You think Pro Prem clubs will look at him and want to sign him because he's crying on national TV? That's dumb.

He seems to want to be in the limelight for some reason. Maybe he wants to be a go-to person in the media when they want to talk about victims of abuse, and it's long term effects etc...

I'm not confident that this interview is legit. I've looked online and can't find another mention of it. Who actually facilitated this interview?

I don't believe he would be publicly asking for Tottenham to employ him (give him a chance) whilst he's still under contract with Como.

Here's an excerpt;

''The football world has responded with mixed emotions. While some believe the door may be closed, others are calling for the club to offer him a lifeline, even if only for a farewell run in the shirt he once wore with pride. Tottenham supporters, known for their loyalty and passion, have taken to social media to express both heartbreak and compassion, with many saying they would welcome him back.''

I haven't seen any of that anywhere, apart from some comments on this thread after the date of the article. Otherwise I only see references to the interview he did with Gary Neville, not this new alleged interview.

I'd be willing to give him a go....certainly worth a limited try..
If he’s crap, bench him but some game time could produce something special
