Joe Willock

A box-to-box midfielder who glides effortlessly with the ball at his feet, Joe enjoyed a stunning breakthrough season last year, making 11 appearances for the first team.

He had been a regular for the under-18s just 12 months earlier, but made his senior debut in the 4-2 win against Red Star Belgrade in the Europa League in September 2017. He then went on to feature in the Premier League, FA Cup and EFL Cup, starting six times. He maintained his fine form at under-23 level too, recording one goal and five assists.

Was part of the pre-season tour squad to Singapore.
