One to watch
Forward, Sikiri Dembele
Dembele came through the youth set ups of Dundee United and Ayr United in Scotland before making the move to Grimsby Town in 2017.
He settled into life at Blundell Park quickly and won the EFL’s Young Player of the Month in October of that year.
In the summer of 2018, he signed for Peterborough United for an undisclosed fee after some eye catching performances in Cleethorpes.
What the winger lacks in height, he more than makes up for in speed and agility. This season he has six goals and seven assists in all competitions and will be a player Rovers will need to keep quiet on the night.
