Devante Cole, son of former Manchester United and Newcastle striker Andy was on the verge of breaking into the first team at Manchester City at the age of 18 but consistent loan spells followed a permanent switch to Bradford City.

He was part of the City's Elite Development Squad, managed by Patrick Vieira, travelling with the senior players on tour last summer and making his debut against SuperSport United in a friendly in Johannesburg. After playing for Bradford for a year, the 21-year-old made the switch to Fleetwood Town, where he continues his development, playing regular first team football.
