Jeremy Sarmiento
Albion have signed former England under-17 international Jeremy Sarmiento from Benfica. He arrives on a two-year deal on undisclosed terms, subject to international clearance. The 19-year-old attacking player will join up with Andrew Crofts’ under-23s. Sarmiento came through the ranks with Charlton Athletic before signing for Benfica in 2018.
Andrew Crofts said: “We are delighted that we are able to bring a player like Jeremy in, who we’ve watched extensively during his time with both Charlton and Benfica. The pathway we have in place was a big factor in Jeremy choosing us ahead of many suitors, which is of huge credit to the academy and first-team staff. We look forward to welcoming Jeremy and seeing him in action with the under-23s in the near future.”
