16-year-old Signs Contract at Farnborough Town

16-year-old Korban Jenkins has signed a 2-year-deal at Farnborough Town after he was scouted from our trial in West London.

Southern football league club, Farnborough Town took an interest Korban at our event in 2017, which was played on QPR's first team training ground and saw Korban play against an open aged group of players, from 16 years and above. 

The week after he was invited to a train with the U18 academy team where again, Korban showed he was up to the grade. Very shortly after, Farnborough, who play at the impressive Cherryroad ground, in Hampshire, offered the youngster a two year deal where he continues to represent the academy side every week. 

Korban told UK Football Trials, "The UK Football Trial was good and it has helped me improve. It gave me the opportunity that I wouldn't usually have had.

It was great for us at UK Football Trials to 'check in' with Korban to hear how he was getting on since he signed at the club back in September 2017 and wish him the best of luck going forward.
