F2Freestylers

 Wingrove is from a football-loving family with his father Alan briefly participating in the youth teams of Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal and his cousin, Greg Lincoln, being part of the first-team squad at Arsenal--though Lincoln was never a player for Arsenal. club.Wingrove tried out for Tottenham Hotspur aged 11, however, he was told he was too small and therefore insufficiently strong to compete at a professional level. He began performing freestyle football in order to earn money while continuing to pursue an athletic career in football, first at youth level with Enfield Town and then semi-professionally for Ware between 2004 and 2009. Wingrove was the very first professional freestyle footballer to be signed by an Premier League club, signing for Tottenham Hotspur, a club that had previously turned him down as a child--in 2003. For them, he performed at half-time break as well as corporate events, and sometimes substitute for players from the first team in advertisements.As an teen, Lynch purportedly played in Arsenal's Academy before being dismissed. He claims to have been told "on the ball you're the best player at the entire club ... however off the field, you're one of the worst", although some people have questioned the veracity of this claim given the presence of players such as Thierry Henry, Robert Pires and Dennis Bergkamp in the Arsenal squad at the time. A former professional footballer, and Arsenal academy graduate Fabrice Muamba, could not recall Lynch being part of the squad . He also pointed out that Lynch was not featured in academy photographs
