In Canada, we were a traditional British home: Sunday roasts, shepherd's pie, cups of tea. My dad is a massive football supporter and taught us all to play, so when it came to choosing which nation to represent, it was always going to be England, as I wanted to make my dad proud of me.

Conn's arrival at Tottenham was marked by immediate impact, scoring a hat-trick on his debut, solidifying his status as a fans' favorite.

Wrexham made history by achieving a third successive promotion in English Football League, becoming the first club to accomplish this in the top five tiers.
