Axel Tuanzebe
Menarik melihat pemain ini semalam masuk list pemain cadangan pas lawan Crystal Palace.
Birthdate : 14 November 1997 Birthplace : Bunia, DR Congo Position : Defender Joined United : 1 July 2013 A robust central defender, Axel Tuanzebe is a natural leader and was captain of the Under-18 team despite being a first-year scholar. Born in Bunia, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the teenager has dual British nationality and has been nurtured by the club's Academy since the age of eight after growing up in Rochdale. A Milk Cup winner in 2013 and 2014, he was awarded Sports Boy of the Year by Mayor of Rochdale Keith Swift in 2009 and has been making good progress ever since. "He's a very, very good player," said Academy adviser Les Kershaw. "And is one of them that I really like because he has a strong personality." Tuanzebe is an imposing figure who is comfortable in possession despite his obvious brawn and the 2015 winner of the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award. He started 28 matches and came off the bench once during a good campaign for Paul McGuinness' side and, remarkably, is still eligible for another year of Academy football. "It was the first time I'd picked a first-year scholar as captain," revealed McGuinness. "I don't think that has happened since Gary Neville was youth-team skipper. Axel did a very good job - on and off the field." He certainly enjoys the responsibility of being captain - "I like bossing people around!" - and has pushed into the Under-21s ahead of schedule after making three substitute appearances for Warren Joyce's side last season. Tuanzebe made the substitutes' bench for the 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace on 31 October at the tender age of 17.
