It has been reported that the scouts came to run the rule over MK Dons teenage goal machine Dylan Asonganyi , however, two players with Nigerian blood flowing in their veins, Benjamin Okechukwu Aghadiuno (Barnet) and David Kasumu (MK Dons) started for their respective teams.

The 18-year-old Kasumu has appeared twice for the first team of MK Dons since his debut against Newport County in August 2016, while Aghadiuno, 17 has played two games for the first team of the Bees this season.
