“I’ve played football since I was about six, but it’s really come into a new light for the past year since I joined a team called Hashtag United,” he says.

“They’re very social media focused. Everything is on YouTube, Instagram and Twitter. Playing with them has really made me fall in love with the game again.”

Who has Toby dated?

Toby’s relationship history is pretty brief.

Why? Well, he’s confessed that he’s never actually been in a relationship.

“I’ve never been in a relationship. I thought, if Love Island can’t find me a relationship then no one can.”

Toby is hoping to bag himself his first partner on the show, but only time will tell if he’ll manage to get what he wants.

However, the footballer has confessed he has one important dealbreaker, and it’s an odd one.

“Looks wise, I’m a sucker for a cute face. Nice feet. That’s a deal-breaker for me. I don’t have a foot fetish but I appreciate nice feet!”

In fact, Toby admitted he tends to judge everyone in his life by the appearance of their feet.

“I think you can judge someone by their feet. Girls who walk around at the club with no shoes on, that’s one of my hates,” he says.

However, if he doesn’t find a woman with perfect feet Toby thinks he’ll be okay regardless.

The sports star says he tends to “see the bright side of the worst situations”.

Naughty, naughty, Toby!
