Nottingham Forest have an academy to be proud of, and the future looks very bright at the City Ground.
Forest have enjoyed another good season at the B-Team and under-18 level, with the Reds still eyeing silverware by winning the Professional Development League cup competition.
Azae Bonnick is one for the future but who in your opinion is Nottingham Forest’s best academy graduate?
Although it’s the B-Team and the under-18s who get the majority of the coverage from the club, there is a player further back down the pathway who is on the back of a truly stunning campaign.
Azae Bonnick stars for Nottingham Forest under-16s
Some information from The Talent Hunter on Instagram has showcased the brilliance of a player currently achieving great things in the Forest Academy ranks.
Bonnick is playing a year up with the under-16s, but that hasn’t fazed him in the slightest, with the midfielder scoring a staggering 39 goals and claiming 14 assists.
At the weekend, he scored and assisted as Forest under-16s defeated Blackburn Rovers 3-1.
Bonnick has already made his debut for the under-18s this season in their Premier League campaign and has received a call-up for the England under-15s this season.
Forest could make the decision to utilise Bonnick even more often in the Under-18s next season, and it looks as though a star could be in the making at Forest.
It’s been a while since Forest unearthed a genuine star when it comes to strikers from the academy, and now, Bonnick will come under scrutiny as he sets about on the path towards Reds stardom.
