Trask on Akindele: “Chris is a soccer player through and through, he can score goals and create for others while bringing a tremendous work rate to training and matches.  Chris’s ability as a player and character will make everyone better in this program.  Chris possesses all the attributes we look for in a member of the team and I look forward to watching him mature over the next four years.”
