Who do you support? Chelsea 

Do you have any matchday superstitions? (If yes, what are they?) Loads but one that everyone in the team knows about me is wearing my socks backwards. I’ve done that every game since I joined Wycombe. 

One piece of advice you’d give to a young, up and coming footballer? Finding the right team for your development is really important.

Don’t always chase higher leagues, think about what you need from a squad and ask the right questions to the manager before you join. Being in the right environment is crucial for your progress.  

What’s been your most memorable moment in a Wycombe shirt? Scoring a hat-trick at Adams Park against Reading and getting POTM last season.

What are your personal goals this season? To score 30 goals and win the league.

How do you hope to inspire the next generation of players? Through the work I do on social media.

Besides football, what other sports do you enjoy?  Snowboarding, gym, tennis and running 

What’s one thing most people don’t know about you? I had a pet snake when I was younger that escaped in my old house (it was over 4ft long) 

If you could instantly become amazing at one random thing, what would it be? Dancing
