Pretty sure he will.
My understanding is Nico is very grateful to Dan Harris, Leon Blackmore Such and Chris Hackett for effectively rescuing him (and Elechi ) from the wilderness after they were released from Fulham and Manchester Utd respectively. Believe it not, after watching the 18’s numerous times this season it’s obvious to see the money we’ve invested is being very well spent and will help the first team for years to come. Worth noting that Robinson is very clued up on all the youth lads and is pretty much a regular at all home games. If you follow my twitter! You’d have seen I called that Nico would play for the first team months ago!
Both had difficult upbringings away from football and if we hadn’t have signed them, who knows what they would be doing with their young lives now. If you’ve not seen Elechi yet you’ll be shocked! The lad is huge but can also shift! Sweet left peg as well and he and Nico link up very well often with Owen James in and around them too.
What Oxford also do so well is they educate the youth lads on all sorts of life situations and they help them just as much away from the pitch as on it.
