2 days agoWhy multilingual rising star Parkinson picked England
"I grew up in Singapore and that really helped me to have a multicultural background as I went to an international school," said Parkinson. "I was around lots of different people. I knew how to deal with that and appreciate that. "A lot of people I'm around can speak two or three languages but everyone here on camp only speaks English! "When we played Portugal in the summer I was able to translate their set-piece routines for the rest of the team which was good."
