Top Nigerian Teenagers To Keep An Eye On : Watford Starlet Dubbed 'New Eden Hazard'

Published: July 25, 2019

Watford youngster Jayden Bennetts continues to negotiate his way through the ranks at Vicarage Road and next season is expected to be another great one for him.

The teenager has seen his stock risen to a point where he was considered for international duties by Nigeria's Flying Eagles Paul Aigbogun.

He was in the camp of Flying Eagles for the U20 World Cup in Poland but left the team before the final roster was announced.

Having impressed for Watford U18 and U23 teams last season, Bennetts briefly trained with the first team before the squad flew to Austria for pre-season training.

Bennetts is known as a playmaker who can also feature as centre-forward due to his keen eye for goal, this is one of the major reasons why he's included in our list of young Nigerians whom fans can't afford to ignore.

He has cited former Chelsea dazzler Eden Hazard as his role model because of the way he plays and creates.
