It is official, Bristol City have officially signed Bermudian attacker Osagi Bascome for the remainder of the campaign.
It follows the 18-year-old’s successful trial at the club, where he featured three times for the Under-23s, scoring once.
The deal also includes the club option of a further year should he impress over the next few months.
Under-23 coach Jamie McAllister said, “He’s been a ball of energy from the moment he arrived at the club. He’s integrated well with the group and has great enthusiasm – he just loves playing football.
“He’s got good awareness and vision. He can play up top in a two and also as a number ten.”
Bermuda-born Bascome has previously featured in the youth setups of Aston Villa, Stoke City, Valencia and Levante.
His performances in the Under-23s’ 2-0 win over Portsmouth and 3-1 success over Ipswich Town – a game in which he scored and set up another goal – prompted City to extend his trial.
Bascome has now put pen to paper on his short-term deal, having received the necessary clearance from the football authorities.
