Ajax has done this since before the birth of Christ

 

It came as more of a surprise that we haven't done this for years already, than the fact they've announced what all other clubs that run their youth academies at least semi-professional has been doing for eons 🤷🏼‍♂️ Even my local side, now a third tier team in the Norwegian league system, has done this since before I can remember - it's just basic logic when it comes to developing the most talented young players in your academy :lol: What the actual flying fuck have we been up to? At least this explains why we've not seen a youth player step up into our starting eleven in decades... :(

Just read on .com that we've appointed Robbie Stockdale to assist O'Carroll with the U23 side. I thought he came across really well when he was on the Sunderland documentary a few years ago, seemed a good guy. Hopefully another decent appointment.

Newcastle United have added Theo Benjamin to their youth ranks following an impressive trial period, with Charlton talent Lesecond Yeutembip also sealing a move to the North East.

 

Theo is the son of former Leicester, Brighton and Crystal Palace forward Trevor Benjamin and has signed a two-year deal on Tyneside, becoming the latest addition to our U15s alongside Yeutembip; who previously captained youth side Barking & Dagenham.

 

Yeutembip is a 14-year-old centre-back who comes from Charlton’s highly-regarded Academy. The rangy defender has traveled with the U15s to Japan this week and featured in a defeat to a J-League youth side in Tokyo today.

Yeutembip played for England Under-15 against Turkey today.
