Isaiah Dada-Mascoll

Isaiah Dada-Mascoll spent nearly a decade inside Manchester City's academy before ever kicking a ball for another senior club. He arrived there at the age of eight, working his way up through the U18 side and into the Elite Development Squad at U21 level, but a competitive first-team debut for City never came. Instead, the 2026/27 season took him abroad, on loan to Lommel United in Belgium, where he now wears the number 44 shirt.

His clearest mark on the pitch so far came with England's youth teams. At the 2023 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, Dada-Mascoll scored twice, including a penalty, in a 4-1 win over the Netherlands. That performance was part of a run of ten caps and two goals at U17 level. He has since stepped up through the age groups, adding caps at U16 and U20, the latter including an appearance in a friendly for the U20s.

Born in Manchester, he holds both English and Nigerian citizenship. His move to Lommel United arrived without a transfer fee attached, a loan arrangement typical of a player still developing away from his parent club rather than a definitive step into senior football. Though his career to date has been built more on the age-grade international stage than in senior club competition.
