Jay-Jay Okocha's brilliant story about signing for Bolton Wanderers ๐:
๐ฃ๏ธ "To be honest, I didn't do my research. When I heard about Bolton, it's just 10 minutes away from Manchester, so I was like, 'It's the same level'
When I was invited to negotiate, they picked me up at Manchester airport and drove me straight to the stadium. The stadium was beautiful. I had it all with the stadium, the hotel - interesting.
They didn't take me to the training ground. They kept that away from me. After I signed and started training. I went to the training ground. The changing room was a cabin. The shower was for just three people. You have to queue.
I said to myself, 'Oh, Jay-Jay, what are you doing here?'"
