Meanwhile, Yeutembip is a centre-back and won’t turn 15 until January, coming to the North East after impressing with London side Charlton Athletic.
“Huge thanks to my family, especially my mom, and to all the coaches who’ve supported me along the way,” the youngster wrote on social media (via the Chronicle). “All praise to God – now it’s time to get to work!”
Mukumbira is a talented forward who has impressed with Peterborough’s youth system.
“I’d like to say thanks to everyone for getting me to where I am now. Thanks to my mum and my family, and we just thank God,” he said.
