Manchester City have signed a youngster from Eritrea thanks to their work in the community scheme.
Leeds City College and Street Work Soccer have teamed up with City to run a weekly football centre in East Leeds for youngsters aged between 6 to18 years.

It has gone from strength to strength since its establishment six months ago with more than 2,000 youngsters now involved in the project and 13-year-old Aron Tesfay recently established in the under13s Platt Lane Academy squad, reports City's website.

Young Aron, who is originally from Eritrea in Africa and now lives in Lincoln Green with his uncle, was spotted while playing at the College at a Street Work Soccer session. He was fast-tracked for a six-week trial at City’s Academy which resulted in his recent signing.
