These 2 Southampton youngsters could be the next Marcus Rashford

Olufela Olomola

Olufela Olomola has already made his senior debut for Southampton, as he came on as a 26th-minute substitute for Jay Rodriguez in their League Cup win over Sunderland back in October.

The 19-year-old has also twice been named as a substitute in the Premier League for the Saints, in their draw with Leicester and defeat to Chelsea also in October, but it has been in Premier League 2 where he has really shone.

Olomola has scored six goals in just 12 games for the Under 23s this term, including braces against both Liverpool and Leicester, to help them to ninth place in Division One.

The former Arsenal youngster clearly has bags of potential, and the fact that he has already got close to the Southampton first team bodes well for his future prospects at St Mary’s.
