It's no more bizarre than the story of Saman Ghoddos who was called up by Iran despite never having been there in his life.

Basically Mrs Oct's Great Gran was up the duff in Liverpool around the start of WWII. The Blitz happens and she's considered vulnerable and evacuated to a nearby village, which happened to be across the border in Wales. Baby is born, has "Wales" written on his birth certificate, and mother and child return to Liverpool shortly after.

That is the full extent of Kieffer's Welsh heritage. Watching him keep a straight face as he gives interviews on the BBC about his pride in his "Welsh" Grandfather is... rather amusing

Kieffer is considerably more Chinese than he is Welsh, and considerably more English than he is Chinese. He only qualifies for Wales because (in the finest traditions of all internet conversations) because of the Nazis

Sadly Mrs Oct, whilst lovely, doesn't come with all that many famous cousins. After Kieffer you're pretty much down to people who work for Lego...

... unless you include the criminals...

Damn that was hard.

There are a LOT of football players.

Well done, Damo.
There are... but, you know, an international striker in one of the top 20 national teams... It wasn't crazy hard...

When you eliminated the premier clubs and with the 'boyo' clue I simply googled Bournemouth Wales International

I'm genuinely stuck.

I've looked for players who meet all of the following criteria:

1. Scored a league goal this season for Manchester United, Brighton & Hove Albion, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Southampton, Everton, Leeds United, Burnley or Norwich City.

2. Looks white but is actually of mixed race background.

3. Capped by a national team other than England.

And I can't find any.

I can only conclude that I've got something wrong, or it's a Championship player. And if it's a Championship player, I don't have the time or energy to filter through all of those too.

I give up.

Are guesses still free? Is it Southampton’s and Scotland’s Che Adams? Eligible for England and Antigua and Barbuda. Scored his first goal this year.
I will say, however, that it's bloody depressing writing boyo boy only to have someone guess a Scot shortly after... :eyeroll:

Guesses are still free, but the guess system will not be abused. You are not permitted to guess every player for example. I think one guess per person is fair

You're giving yourself a lot of work there, but I can confirm that he is in a team that either is in, has just been promoted to, or just relegated from, the Premiership. There are other directions that are perhaps better to focus on. There are some hints strewn throughout the thread that might be useful.

As a final clue, it's probably fair to say that his biggest game of the year probably hasn't happened yet.

And that's all you're getting ;)

19. Does he play for a London based club?
Nope
So he does not play for:

Liverpool
Leicester
Man City
Arsenal
Brentford
Chelsea
Crystal Palace
Tottenham
Watford (if that counts as "London")
West Ham

Nor does he play for the Championship teams Fulham, Queen’s Park Rangers, or Millwall.

I'm going to hope he's a Premier League player. So that leaves the following teams:

Manchester United
Brighton & Hove Albion
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Newcastle United
Aston Villa
Southampton
Everton
Leeds United
Burnley
Norwich City
