Miguel Azeez signs first professional contract

Midfielder Miguel Azeez has signed his first professional contract with us.

The 17-year-old joined us at the age of five and has progressed through the academy ranks. His impressive work ethic has helped him to secure a professional contract.

Miguel made eight appearances during our under-18s’ title-winning 2018/19 season, scoring twice and assisting twice. He already has one goal in five Under-18 Premier League appearances this season and made his debut for the under-23s against Derby in the Premier League 2 in August.

An England international, Miguel has proven himself at under-17 level, scoring 12 goals in 14 appearances for his country.
