Blackburn Rovers' academy players inspired the stars of the future as part of EFL Week of Action on a visit to a primary school in the town.

Football clubs across the country took part in the annual event which sees players engage with the local community during the international break.

Up and coming talents Solomon Honor and Junior Nsangou spent an afternoon at St Barnabas and St Pauls Primary School in Blackburn taking part in a Premier League Primary Stars session. 

The club already has a partnership with the school, running weekly PE sessions with the pupils. 

Lancashire Telegraph:

Honor and Nsangou took part in an invasive games lesson, before leading two question and answer sessions where they spoke about their careers so far coming through the Rovers ranks.

Goalkeeper Honor, 17, joined Rovers in February 2022 after eight years in the academy at Manchester City, and has featured for Rovers under 18s this season.

Polish striker Nsangou, 18, has been with Rovers since he was nine-years-old and after strong performances for the under 18s last season has featured for the under 23s this, scoring two goals in five games featuring mainly off the bench.

Born in Cameroon but a Polish citizen, Nsangou had been playing at Droylsden before making the move to Ewood Park. He has played for Poland at under 19s level.
