Brave, powerful defender
Drake registered with City's Academy at Under-14s after progressing through the ranks at Stevenage.
A committed defender who is always prepared to put his body on the line to protect his goal, Drake has been a regular figure in England's youth squads.
Leke signed his scholarship with the Club in 2024 and spent the 2024/25 season as a member of the Under-18s squad.
Despite seeing half his season impacted by injury, Drake made 10 appearances.
Fully fit for 2025/26, the defender was one of the most impressive players for the Under-18s as he helped Oliver Reiss' side retain the Under-18 Premier League North title and was a key figure in our FA Youth Cup glory.
Drake totalled 33 appearances and captained the young blues for almost all of the fixtures as he provided maturity, composure and leadership to the team.
