Jaden Heskey, son of ex-Reds striker Emile, has joined the Premier League club on a scholarship deal. The deal will run for the forthcoming 2022/23 season, and will see him join Man City’s Under-18 squad.

Like his father, Heskey is a striker who is also capable of playing in the No.10 role, and has been with City’s academy for a number of years. The 16-year-old has been rewarded for his progress and potential with a scholarship that commits his future to the club.
