"Brighton’s Yves Bissouma: ‘It was hard to leave my parents aged 13’"
He left his parents when they were 13?!
“Sometimes when I’m in the car, another car will pull up alongside and the people will wave at me and start singing my song,” he says. “I like it! When you leave Africa to pursue your dream and then, just three years later, you find yourself in England with people chanting your name …” He pauses to find the right words. “It’s lovely.”
I found this strangely moving. He obviously loves that song.
