Express yourself

Campachoochoos

Calvert-Lewin is a big fan of Bob Mortimer’s ‘Train Guy’ character on Twitter, and one of his lockdown highlights was receiving a response from the comedian after including the clips in a post describing his ‘Quarantine Routine’. Mortimer hailed Calvert-Lewin as an “adult haddock” and added in typical fashion: “Have a campachoochoo on me.” Calvert Lewin told Football Focus: “I didn’t think he’d reply to me – I was buzzing.”
