Youth career
Tendai spent his first few years in Zimbabwe, arriving in England as an eight year old. He played for local side Tipton Olympic for two years as a striker, and was top goalscorer in the league both seasons. He joined Wolves as an eleven year old, and has been a regular ever since. He started as a central midfielder, then was played as a winger, but has recently been playing at right back. He could have been a rugby player instead: former Rugby Union star Austin Healey once tried to tempt him to switch.
