Didn't know that. Did some checking and he was called into two training camps at Under 19 level while he was still with Preston, but didn't make the final squad

Goal and an assist for Jack Henry-Francis tonight against Exeter
Assist at 2:21, and the goal (which takes a deflection) at 3:41
Tommi O’Reilly also referred to as Irish on the Villa website. Is he not eligible? Seems to be some debate, but bizarre it’s not amended on their site…

Jack Henry-Francis' third goal in four games, and another two for Mark O'Mahony in a 6-3 win for Arsenal against Brighton in the PL2
Going by the highlights below, every shot on target went in!
Henry-Francis' goal at 1:32, Mahony's brace at 2:03 and 2:43
Nine goals in seven games - great stuff, let's hope he keeps it up.
Elsewhere, Ollie O'Neill scored for Fulham against Feyenoord: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...-feyenoord-u21
Blackburn faced a hammering from Reading, but at least Zak Gilsenan hit the net: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...urn-rovers-u21
Brighton won 2-1 against Villa to go 4th in the PL2. O’Mahony didn’t score, but is getting a load of plaudits with a lot of fans expecting him to be involved with the first team shortly with such a busy schedule and Welbeck out and the Asian / African cup of nations depleting their team. Sounds like he’s been training with them too which is encouraging.
McConville from the North scored and Cahill also getting praise in goal.

Cathal Heffernan scored for Newcastle against Dortmund in this today, but they drew 2-2 and are out with two games remaining
Course Troy Parrott did quite well in this I think, so it's no guarantee of a successful senior career
Haven't been keeping a close eye on Calum Kavanagh this season, but he scored the only goal against Derby, his eighth goal in eight games this season: https://www.premierleague.com/match/107534/premier-league-2/2023-24/middlesbrough-u21-v-derby-u21

Boro's U21 side have scored 18 goals in the PL2 this season, Kavanagh scored six of those. He's only failed to scored in two of the nine games he's played in this season. He turned 20 in September, and should look to either push into their first team this season, or go on loan again in January. Boro had a stuttering start to the season, failing to win until their eighth game, but have won six of their last eight and the play off spots are in sight for them.
Stream of Brighton and Hove Albion v Celtic in the PL International Cup
Few Irish players involved
Brighton's starting players: Killian Cahill, Leigh Kavanagh, Jamie Mullins, Mark O'Mahony
Celtic's starting players: Rocco Vata
Celtic's substitutes: Justin Osagie
Two goals for O'Mahony, one each for Kavanagh and Vata. Brings O'Mahony's total for the season to 17 in all competitions, by my count... it's November! https://www.brightonandhovealbion.co...-amex-thriller
Elsewhere, Franco Umeh was credited with an assist for Palace against Birmingham: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...tal-palace-u21
Not much happening tonight - Ollie O'Neill credited for an assist on Fulham's second goal against Brighton - https://www.premierleague.com/match/...1-v-albion-u21
But the most interesting thing is who did not play - Mark O'Mahony and Leigh Kavanagh were both absent from Brighton's line-up - given Brighton's injury list, will we see them on the bench tomorrow?
Also, Zak Gilsenan did not appear in Blackburn's U21 squad for their game against Norwich

Blackburn reported to be activating Conor O'Riordan's 500k release clause in January to being him up to the Championship from League 2.
No surprise there I suppose.
Quotes here regarding his pride of playing for Ireland that I didn't see at the time. Both paternal grandparents are Irish and are still alive and supporting him:

Baba Adeeko starts for Wigan against Man United in the cup.
Interviewed in the Times yesterday. He's been in the North of England since he was 13 after his mother moved for work. His dad stayed back in Galway working as a taxi driver. Don't know if he is still there. He said that Nigeria had been in touch with his parents but sounded quite vague over the form of and reception towards the approach.
How did he perform?
Did okay. Gave the ball away once and thankfully wasn't punished. Otherwise, had a fairly thankless job to do as United pressed McTominay and Fernandes up onto Adeeko and Shaw beside him for the game. Whilst he had a few interventions, they were pinned back a lot but he held up okay for the full thing.
I don't think we've ever lost a player to Nigeria that I can think of. The combination of the depth they have to pick from, the travel involved and the affect on a player's value that playing for an African team has makes it unlikely that an Adeeko type would ever make that switch.
