An attacker inside the box and a midfielder outside it, Dele has won PFA Young Player of the Year twice in a row while only 21.
Early days
Dele is a product of the youth system of Milton Keynes Dons, whom he joined at the age of 11. Dele quickly rose through the ranks of the club and was soon given a chance with the first team.

Debut
Dele made his professional debut for Milton Keynes in the 2012-2013 season in a 0-0 draw against Cambridge City in the FA Cup at the age of 16.

Dele made his debut for the senior England Team in 2015, where he scored the opening goal in a 2-0 win against France.

Dele appeared on 33 occasions in the League while netting the ball 6 times
