Chris Willock has heard all the stories about Premier League academy talents failing to make the cut, but sometimes it doesn't feel like that to the QPR star.
The forward took a roundabout route to the Championship club, coming through the ranks at Arsenal before spending time in Portugal with Benfica. However, since returning to English football, he can barely move for familiar faces from various stages in his young career.
Willock's younger brother Joe has carved a path for himself in the Premier League, while other Hale End graduates including Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka have made the step up to the first team.
