Back at watfordfc where it all started for him, and Assombalonga will set a record when he scores
Should he score now he’s returned, the striker will instantly set the Watford record for the longest period between making your debut and scoring your first goal.
“We used to play games on Wednesdays, and Chris Andrews who ran the centre told me that the football club wanted to have me in for a trial. “As a striker you pride yourself on goals. Going away on loan and scoring goals was good for me,” he smiled. “When you’re young and you see the figures, you think flipping hell! To be in that position I was obviously a mixture of nerves and excitement,” he recalled.“That time at Peterborough was fantastic and I loved every moment of it. I really grew under Darren Ferguson, and he really taught me a lot. I’ve always been thankful to him.”
