Dele Alli could become Yoruba king – Fashanu

      

John Fashanu has claimed that Tottenham midfielder, Dele Alli, could become a king in the Yorubaland in future.
The 20-year-old who is originally from Nigeria, has chosen to represent the Three Lions of England.
Alli’s father, Kenny, is Yoruba just like Fashanu and Dele is already a prince in the tribe.

    “If Dele went back to Nigeria now it would be crazy,” Kenny told the Daily Star.
“He would have a presidential welcome wherever he goes.

“Everybody watches him play and is proud of him. It opens every door for him being a prince. As he is, he can talk to our prime minister and the president if he wants to.”
Fashanu added: “Dele being a prince in Nigeria is absolutely massive

 “It would give him a lot of respect if he returned to live here and maybe one day he could be king of the Yoruba tribe.
“It means a lot of houses, cars and enormous wealth.”
