Forward with an English father on how a pub brought him to Mallorca, being wanted by Everton and facing La Liga’s finest
Like all the best stories, this one starts in the pub, and the man telling it has a glint in his eye and a grin on his face, the words flying out at a million miles an hour. “I never stop talking,” Brandon Thomas says, and he’s not wrong. “I consider myself a bloke with personality, an extrovert,” he says, and he’s not wrong there either. The Osasuna forward is talking about pretty much everything really, falling about laughing most of the time. Right now, he’s on the buildup to a big game, excitement, nerves, second-guessing the team, how it will go. “And if things go well, magic,” he says, “if not, keep on and on.” It could be his motto.
