Players to Watch

Evan Ferguson (Republic of Ireland)

Evan Ferguson will have an important role to play in the attacking front for the Ireland national football team.

Nicolas Jackson (Senegal)

The striker for the Premier League side Chelsea has shown some good performances for his club in the last few days.
