Bio
Richard Kone signed his first professional contract with the Blues in January 2024, having impressed on trial the previous summer.
The Ivorian striker was a prolific goalscorer in the Essex Senior League with Athletic Newham, courting attention from a host of Premier League and EFL clubs.
Wanderers won the race for the forward, who was a regular on the scoresheet in practice matches before his deal was finalised.
He burst onto the scene with a goal on his first appearance against West Ham U21s in the Bristol Street Motors Trophy, and added three further strikes before also netting on the opening day of the 2024/25 campaign.
