    “An older person told me they wouldn’t stop a kid on a bike so I’d ride around with my football and underneath I’d have drugs.
    “At 11 I was hung off a bridge… by a guy from the next estate. A man.
    Who is Dele Alli’s dad, Kehinde?
    Dele pictured with father Kehinde
    Kehinde Alli is a Nigerian businessman.
    Denise and Kehinde are no longer together but met in a nightclub while he was studying for a Master’s at De Montford University.
    The pair had a whirlwind romance and tied the knot before having their son Dele.
    After around three years of marital issues, Dele’s parents separated, with Kehinde now married to someone else.
    Who are Dele Alli’s foster parents, Alan and Sally Hickford?
    At the age of 13, Dele moved into the family home of Alan and Sally Hickford after his biological mum struggled with alcohol issues.
    He tends to refer to them as his “adoptive parents” although he was never legally adopted by them.
    Dele was friends with the Hickford’s son Harry who was also a keen footballer, with the two of them going on to play for MK Dons Academy.
    Speaking about the Hickford’s he said: “By 12 I was adopted but from then it was like I was adopted by an amazing family.
    “I couldn’t have asked for better people to do what they done for me.
    “If God created people it was them – they were amazing and have helped me a lot.
    “When I was living with them it was hard for me to open up to them because I felt like it was easy for them to get rid of me.”
    In 2016 Dele decided to change his name on the reverse of his match shirt from Alli to Dele, due to feeling “no connection” to the Alli surname.
    Tottenham explained on their website at the time that while Alli will retain the number 20 shirt, he had chosen to have the name ‘DELE’ displayed on his match shirts.
    Dele said: “I wanted a name on my shirt that represented who I am and I feel I have no connection with the Alli surname.

    Why is England Women’s football team called the Lionesses?
    The name, Lionesses, helped to differentiate the men’s team from the women’s back in 2012.

    The hashtag allowed people to follow the women’s team more easily without getting caught up with men’s #ThreeLions branding at the time. 
    In 2015 ahead of the FIFA Women’s World Cup the FA adopted the name as an official brand identity.
