Queens Park Rangers Nigerian Goal Machine Jardel Topping The Goal Charts
Published: November 24, 2017
Nigerian prodigy Jardel Francis-Adeyinka is statistically the leading marksman in the whole of the U18 Professional Development League.
Born January 16, 2000, the striker has been in rampant form in the league, scoring ten goals to top the goalscoring table, ahead of a quartet of players Ryan Cassidy, Jack Clarke, Antoine Semenyo and Luke Walsh, who have nine goals apiece.
So far, the highlight of Francis-Adeyinka's season was his hat-trick against Crewe Alexandra on 26 August.
The 17-year-old tallied a brace against Bristol City and bagged goals against Bolton Wanderers, Cardiff City, Colchester United and Charlton Athletic.
The precocious talent joined Queens Park Rangers from Fulham in 2014 and recorded 3 goals in 20 matches last term.
Fulham's Elijah Adebayo is the third top scorer in the Premier League 2, Southampton's Michael Obafemi is fourth best in the U18 Premier League, and ex-Chelsea trialist Victor Adeboyejo is seventh on the Professional Development League scoring charts.
