Efe Obada has given up his job in a warehouse and will fly out to Texas next month to link up with the Cowboys

Efe Obada is relishing the chance to play for the Dallas Cowboys after he was recently handed a three-year contact by the NFL giants.

Obada, who before last year had never played American football, was snapped up by the Cowboys after playing just five games with the London Warriors.

The 22-year-old was trafficked to the UK before being abandoned and left homeless on the streets of London at the age of 10.

Obada, who says his life "feels like a movie", will now pursue his dream when he heads out to Texas next month for the NFC East team’s rookie’s mini camps.
