Ola Aina has recounted his father’s efforts to ensure he became a professional footballer, including selling his car.
The wing-back joined Chelsea as a schoolboy and went on to spend 11 years with the Stamford Bridge outfit, including a loan spell at Championship side Hull City.
Aina teamed up with Serie A side Torino in 2018 for his second stint away from the Blues and earned rave reviews to secure a permanent stay with the Italian outfit this summer.
