Connor Cook, the son of Blues boss Paul, has joined the Town academy as a scholar, TWTD can reveal.
Cook first featured for the U18s during pre-season and has been in and around Adem Atay’s squad since their Professional Development League Two South campaign got under way.
The 17-year-old lined up in right midfield in the pre-season friendly away against Essex side May & Baker but is understood to be able to operate in a variety of positions. He is believed to have previously been with Wigan's youth set-up.
Town’s U18s remain top of PDL2 South with no league games having been played this weekend when they were in Professional Development League Cup action, losing 6-2 at Coventry with Fin Barbrook and Archie Kieran on the scoresheet. They host QPR at Playford Road in the league on Saturday.
