Bio

Born in Smethwick, Justin stands out for his attacking attributes as well as his memorable surname. 

A towering target man, Seven-Seven pushed towards a professional club early into his life - starting out at Mahal FC and Soho Albion, one of the club's development teams, which is where a link with the Baggies first appeared for the striker. 

Performances in the club's development team earned Justin a trial and, consequently, a contract with the club which was signed as a nine-year-old. 

Having grown up a stone's throw away from Albion's academy hub at the EPPP building opposite The Hawthorns, Justin's destiny always lay at the Baggies - proven once more when he reached the scholarship phase, signing a two-year deal in July 2025. 

A physical presence in the box, Justin showed the quality of finishing during his maiden year as a scholar - turning up in big moments to write his name on matches, such as his dramatic 96th-minute equaliser against Sunderland during the FA Youth Cup fifth-round tie in January 2026. 

This dramatic goal came after Seven-Seven had earned his first International honours at youth level, where he featured four times for Germany's U17s and scored his maiden goal in a 7-0 victory over Finland at the start of January.
