Ex-Nigeria U15 Invitee David Kasumu Makes League Debut For MK Dons

Teenage Nigerian midfielder David Kasumu made his league debut for MK Dons in their 1-0 win over Shrewsbury Town on the final day of the regular season in League One.

The 18-year-old came off the bench in the 80th minute for his maiden appearance for MK Dons in the league, a reward for the youngster after impressing for the youth teams.

Born in London to Nigerian parents, Kasumu won MK Dons Academy Player of the Year at the club's End of Season Awards held at Stadium MK on Tuesday, May 1.

He has been named in MK Dons' match day squad on ten occasions since making his professional debut against Newport County in the League Cup in August 2016.

Kasumu is being monitored by the Nigeria Football Federation with a view to a call-up to their youth teams and was handed an invitation to train with the Nigeria U15s in June 2015.

He penned his first professional contract with MK Dons in December 2017.
