Looks like placeholder U18 profiles have been added for the first year scholars: https://www.dcfc.co.uk/teams/u18

10 by the looks of it.

Goalkeepers

Josh Shattell (formerly Tooting and Mitcham United)

Defenders

Billy Gough (left-back, formerly Notts Co)

Daniel Cox (centre-back)

Jack Perry (right-back, can also play midfield, missed a lot of last season with a back injury)

Keilen Robinson (centre-back, but can play left-back I think)

Midfielders

Harry Hawkins (central midfielder)

Farren Simons (attacking midfielder, no. 10)

Forwards

Dejaune Brown (striker)

Jayden Davidson (winger)

Lennon Wheeldon (striker, formerly Notts Co)

First time I'd heard of Simons. Goal scoring midfielder, signed from Torquay. Was also on trial at Chelsea earlier in the year (and scored).

 

Elsewhere, True Grant is a 1st year scholar at Man City. A goalkeeper signed from us in 2019. https://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/2018/03/academy-life-episode-one-tru-grant

He moved up to Manchester with the rest of the family when Lee signed for Man Utd so effectively wanted to pay for his local club

Putting this in this thread as I'm assuming they're an academy player. Any idea's who this is?

I think that is Jack Bates who played against Belper United and Matlock Town. Not a first-year scholar so I assume he’s a trialist. Think he may have played on trial for us back-end of last season as well.

[Edit] A quick google of “Jack Bates Derby County” and I found this: https://derbyunifootyjournos.wordpress.com/2022/05/05/derby-starlet-jack-bates-confident-in-first-team-breakthrough-im-in-a-better-place-than-ever-before/

So with Demico Burton and Jack Bates, it looks like not all the U21 signings have been officially announced yet.

I wonder if there’s any more?

I'm not 100% sure I'm correct with the "(?? Name ??)" ones but I reckon:

Left to right: Lennon Wheeldon, Farren Simons, Harry Hawkins, Dejaune Brown, (?? Daniel Cox ??), Keilan Robinson, (?? Josh Shattell ??), Jayden Davidson, (?? Jack Perry ??), Billy Gough, Cameron Ashia

Any thoughts, @Ghost of Clough
