Young Junior Joins Blues
Wednesday, 3rd Sep 2025 13:32

Tyler Young has joined his father Ashley in signing for the Blues following his summer trial.

TWTD revealed in July that the 19-year-old was with John McGreal and Chris Casement’s squad, featuring in a number of their pre-season friendlies.

Now, the former Peterborough midfielder has penned a one-year deal to join the development squad for the season ahead.

Young junior was released by Posh in May having previously been with the youth set-ups at Arsenal, Milton Keynes Dons and QPR.

While at London Road, Stevenage-born Young made one senior sub appearance in the EFL Trophy.

Meanwhile, Blues U18s central defender Fraser Heard has extended his loan spell with Lowestoft Town into a second month.

First-year scholar Jayden Atiba is with the UAE U18s squad for their friendly in Poland this afternoon.

Gforce added 13:43 - Sep 3 Looking at his track record so far,I'd be very surprised if he makes the grade. I wonder if this is a back handed deal,to get his dad to sign for the season.

MrJase_79 added 14:44 - Sep 3 @ Gforce - even if that was the case (not saying it is) sometimes you got to grease the wheels, that's a normal part of getting business done in life. I got no issue with that. If he doesn't make the cut we will release him. No biggie.

LeightonBuzzardBlue added 16:27 - Sep 3 Ignoring the fact he's Ashley's son - Tyler is definitely a good signing for the development squad.

Tractor_Boy_in_HK added 08:08 - Sep 4 Gforce - no idea why you're getting down votes when it is bloody obvious that's the case - they even joined the club at the same time. The youngsters trial began as Ashley was signing, but the fact some think it's coincidence is funny.
