WHAT KOLA BOKINNI SAID
Bokinni is ready and waiting whenever the call comes, telling The Big Issue: “Whatever happens, I’ll be there for them, because they were there for me.”
He added on initially being hesitant to join a show that has “done amazing things” for his life: “I was like, it’s a show about this American guy who comes over and tells us how to play football? But I’ve been playing football my whole life.”
