Next generation set to shine in Wanderers final NPL 1 clash of the season

Young guns Kade Baccus, Marcus Fernandez and Awan Lual are all set to feature in the Wanderers final National Premier League 1 fixture against NWS Spirit this Sunday.

The Wanderers have narrowly avoided relegation this season and are coming off the back of an impressive result against Mt Druitt Town Rangers last weekend.

The final match of the season this Sunday at Wanderers Football Park will see some fresh faces get their chance to impress in the senior squad.

A name familiar to the Red & Black family, Kade Baccus, joined the Academy in the U15s team this year and is the brother of former Wanderers legend Keanu Baccus and Kearyn Baccus.

Baccus has worked his way up through all age groups this season and has played a number of matches across the U15s, U16s, U18s and U20s squads.

Marcus Fernandez has received the call-up to Sunday’s fixture and currently plays in the club’s U18s squad.

Fernandez joined the Wanderers in 2022 in the U16s squad.

Alongside Fernandez, the Wanderers U18s leading goalscorer Awan Lual has also been named to feature against NWS Spirit and has over 20 goals to his name this season.

You can watch the match live at Wanderers Football Park or stream at NPL.TV.
