Adriel is hoping to become the next attacking star in B71. 

Mo Faal, Jovan Malcolm and Reyes Cleary have all made their mark from the academy ranks and despite suffering an injury-hit start to his maiden term as a scholar, Walker has found some very impressive form during the 2023/24 season.

The striker officially joined Albion when he was ten-years-old, sealing his future with the club at the end of U10s. 

Walker has spent most his childhood in Smethwick, which only helped grow his affiliation with the Baggies given the close proximity between his residence and the hub for the club's young hopefuls at the EPPP building.

He certainly adds plenty of factors to the attacking play, with Adriel possessing energy, power and danger in front of goal.

After only managing a couple of goals during his maiden term as a scholar, Adriel netted in the PL Cup quarter-final tie v Charlton in 2023 as well as a final-day goal against Fulham, and improving those numbers is the next step for the forward during the next chapter of his journey with the Albion.
