New intake of under 18's. Congratulations in particular to Ian Togo who despite being coached by me for a couple of seasons as a nipper has still managed to get this far.....
Freddie Anderson
Freddie is a centre back who joined from Manchester City at the end of last season. He is tall, aggressive and excellent in possession. Freddie is the son of former England international Viv Anderson, and we fought off several clubs to secure his signature.
Gabriel Kelly
Gabriel is a centre midfielder who joined from Manchester City as an Under-16. He has been capped by the Republic of Ireland at youth international level. Gabriel moves well across the pitch, is good in possession and effective in both boxes. He was introduced to Under-18s football at the end of last season, making his debut against Blackburn Rovers in March.
Ian Togo
Ian joined as an U10 after playing grassroots football in Manchester. A tall centre back, he is comfortable in possession and a positive character around the dressing room.
Jackson Kelly
Jackson has been with us since the age of 11 and was signed from grassroots football in Ellesmere Port. He is a mobile and strong forward who can play anywhere across the front three and he carries excellent finishing qualities in front of goal.
Jaden Dixon
Jaden is a right-sided defender, who can also play centrally. He joined us last season from Tottenham Hotspur, having also represented England at youth international level. He is an athletic defender who likes to tackle but is also comfortable in possession.
Joshua Maskall
Josh is a hard-working, quick and direct winger who possesses a decent end product. He has been with the Club since Under-11s.
Kobie Hines-Leacock
Kobie has been recruited this summer after being spotted playing as a winger for Millwall. We see him as an option at left back in the long-term too. Kobie is energetic, carries a good end product and is effective in one-v-one situations.
Lewis Walker
Lewis joined us midway through last season from Leicester City. A central midfielder, he played for the U18s towards the end of last season. Lewis likes to make himself available to receive and play the ball.
Luke Enright
Luke joined us from Aston Villa last year. He is a mobile and aggressive striker who scores goals. Again, we fought off several clubs to secure his signature.
Michael Zeitzen
Michael joined us at the end of last season from Arsenal. He possesses a great profile for a goalkeeper and is an excellent shot-stopper.
Ruben Brammer
Ruben has been with us since the age of eight. He is a reliable shot-stopper who is good in all aspects of the game.
Sydney Agina
Like Ruben, Sydney has been with us since the Under-9s. He is a powerful defender who is good in the air, likes to defend and is comfortable in possession. Quiet and unassuming, but a character within the dressing room.
Souleymane Sidibe
Sol joined as an Under-9 too. He played for the U18s throughout last season and possesses everything you want in a modern-day midfielder. As is widely known, Sol is the son of former Potter Mamady Sidibe.
