“We were in the bar of our hotel and he came over and said he knew Wolves. He noticed my Wolves shirt and we started talking about football, Wolves, Raul Jimenez and he said he was a Manchester United fan.

“He was really knowledgeable and knew a lot about Wolves, he knew we'd sacked the manager. He was such a nice, hospitable man, he started buying our food and drinks and didn't allow us to pay, but wanted to make us feel welcome in his home country.”

Dehal described the experience as 'surreal' and 'amazing'.

Dehal continued: “So we sat with him, had a great conversation about football and he then said we can come to his house tomorrow for lunch, and he took my number. Next day I get a call from him saying his driver is waiting outside our hotel to take us to his place.

“It said, 'There is a car waiting for you'. We couldn't believe it. We were shocked, as we didn't expect that to happen at all.

“We went to his house which was a massive mansion. We then sat with him, had tea and biscuits and he showed us around the house. Then we all watched the Germany vs Japan match and we sat and ate with him in the dining room on a huge dining table.

“When going around the house he took us to the swimming pool area and he said we could go for a swim but we weren't dressed for it. It was just a surreal experience and it shows that the hospitality of the Qatari people is top-class.”
