Hemel Hempstead Town Football Club is excited to announce the arrival of talented young prospect, Leo Cole!
Leo comes to the Tudors off the back of a massive season at non-league side Abingdon United, starting 31 times over 33 games. At only 17, Leo has been making waves in the lower non-leagues, with 10 goals and 12 assists to his name over the last season.
"IT'S FAIR TO SAY THERE HAS BEEN LOTS OF INTEREST IN LEO, UNDERSTANDABLY, AND WE ARE DELIGHTED HE HAS PUT HIS TRUST IN HEMEL. ONE OF THE BIG INDICATORS I LOOK FOR WHEN SIGNING A PLAYER - ESPECIALLY ONE AS YOUNG AS LEO - IS THE NUMBER OF GAMES, AND PLAYING AS MANY GAMES AS EARLY AS YOU CAN."
"LEO HAS PLAYED A LOT OF FIRST TEAM FOOTBALL, AND THAT'S A GOOD SIGN. HE'S GOT A SHADE OF JOSH STOKES ABOUT HIM. HE'S GOT THAT LOVELY FEARLESS NATURE TO HIS GAME TO WANT TO TAKE THE BALL UNDER PRESSURE AND TAKE RISKS. HE'S QUICK-FOOTED AND HAS GOT A LOVELY WEIGHT OF PASS. HE'S AN INCREDIBLE TALENT, AND REPRESENTS A BIT OF A PROJECT." - JOE POPE | HEAD OF RECRUITMENT.
We're pleased that Leo has chosen the Focus as his new home, and we're excited to see him play in a Tudor shirt! Welcome, Leo! 🤩
I found eggy car while browsing browser games yesterday. The balance between simple controls and careful driving kept me playing much longer than I expected.
Leo's numbers from last season are impressive, especially considering how young he is. Regular first-team football at 17 is a great foundation, and it will be interesting to see how he develops with Hemel Hempstead Town. I found topx while reading about the signing, and I'm looking forward to seeing how he adapts to the next level.
