It’s a nickname my uncle gave me when I was a young beginner boy. He said that I had a great strike force and that it was like Roberto Carlos. Over time, I may have lost that particular attribute a bit, but when I go to Senegal, they always call me Carlos, especially in my neighborhood. If they called me Pope, no one would turn their heads,” revealed the young player.

Sunday, for the first day of the Premier League, Tottenham will play a London derby once morest Brentford.
