    U17 defender Tyreke Wilson among a number of academy players handed professional contracts by Man City: http://www.manchestereveningnews.co....olars-11558166

    Here's what Man City blogger InEsteemedKompany had to say about him: https://twitter.com/EsteemedKompany/...59056473370626
    10) Tyreke Wilson. Very attacking, very competitive left back. Gets forward well with excellent pace.

    Tyreke Wilson

    New four-year contract with Man City for the former Cherry Orchard player.

    http://www.the42.ie/irish-youngster-...62889-Jul2016/

    And with a four-year contract I assume a loan to a league team will be on the agenda soon enough.

    Please don't start a new thread every time a player signs a contract. The policy is to do that when they make a first team appearance, either as starter or on the bench.

    Former underage player Gerard Nash to take over as U21 coach at Ipswich: http://www.twtd.co.uk/ipswich-town-n...-be-u21s-coach
    I went to school with a lad called Gerard Nash, so the name stuck in my head when he was called into Ireland squads
    Had a quick search on fai.ie and found these three U17 games from 2002:
    VS Germany: http://www.fai.ie/ireland/match/23/2003/69550
    VS France: http://www.fai.ie/ireland/match/23/2003/69551
    VS Slovenia: http://www.fai.ie/ireland/match/23/2003/69554
    Some familiar names there, along with the usual "where is he now?"

    Just a mention for youth hawk which is a great website for keeping an eye on Irish lads in youth and under 21 football in the uk unfortunately doesn't do Scotland. Brighton seems to have the most Irish underage players at present there academy head was our under 15 coach a few yes ago I think . An interesting one on it is a Leicester city lad keaveney who has played for us and been involved with Hungary as well. Seems to b a few Irish strikers around in uk youth teams which is good.

    His Instagram tagline is 'É a dhéanamh mé féin' too!

    I haven't much of an idea of his background but his first name is down on Youth Hawk as being Jozsef which hints that his mother is Hungarian but that's a guess...

    Wexford Youth's Ryan Delaney set to be offered a deal by Burton Albion, but it's a case of "don't call us, we'll call you" for Jay Tabb: http://www.burtonalbionfc.co.uk/news...n-3195692.aspx
    "Ryan Delaney is off back to Ireland this morning, he’s a cracking lad and we would look to try and get him fixed up if we can. He hasn’t played at a high standard in football and doesn’t train full time, that’s why we brought him off today he was a bit tired."
    “With Jay Tabb, he is a great professional and great lad. We haven’t ruled out bringing him in but for the time being we are waiting to hear back on a few of our loan enquiries for wide players so we aren’t in the position currently of bringing him in.”
