NAC Breda's relationship with Manchester City is beginning to bear fruit after signing two of their teenage stars.

The Dutch club announced both Thomas Agyepong and Ashley Smith-Brown had joined for the entirety of this season.

And they expect midfielder George Glendon to arrive in the coming weeks as well, four months after penning a five-year partnership with Breda in April.

Former Brentford boss Marinus Dijkhuizen takes charge in the Dutch second division and City know their academy products will be afforded the opportunity to develop with consistent games.

Striker Enes Unal impressed last year and could remain in Holland for another year, while it remains to be seen whether central defender Tosin Adarabioyo joins him.

Agyepong and Smith-Brown were in Breda on Sunday evening training and are travelling to their pre-season camp in Bosschenhoofd.

Breda technical director Hans Smulders said: 'Both players have the qualities to make NAC better immediately. Thomas has already showed at FC Twente what he is capable of and Ashley's has made a storming development at Manchester City.

'The calibre of player coming to Breda says something about the cooperation with NAC and what it has to appeal NAC.

'These guys were instantly excited and can not wait to get started.'

NAC Breda's partnership with City offers them between four and six Elite Development Squad stars every season and the Premier League giants will cover the wages.
