It's always difficult if you're coming into a new club and new league, especially the English one. It's a very demanding one, can be a very tough one.

At Ajax, we have a certain philosophy that is sometimes more important than winning - the development of players.

I share a special bond with Ajax. I think we are a special club. And we're known for our philosophy around the world.

I always said I wanted to finish my career back at Ajax, but I didn't think I was going to play for so long at such a high level, so that's not going to happen now.

Hopefully, even if I am judged or there's confusion, anger, about how I identify, I hope that people can understand that family is fluid.

I get along great with my family. My parents are really proud of me and my brother, who's a chef here in New York. I don't see my parents often, but they're very supportive, especially as I get older.

Mandy Sutter's 'Bush Meat' triumphs in its lean prose and true dialogue, in its disarming humour, in its evocation of a family divided by sexism and racism in 1960s Nigeria.

What keeps me awake at night? Just about everything! I worry that I am not there for my family enough. So what keeps me awake at night is general guilt!
