Charlton Athletic are delighted to announce that academy starlet Kai Enslin has signed a new long-term contract with the club.
The versatile 19-year-old impressed on his full debut - a 1-0 Vertu Trophy victory against Bromley in November 2024 - and featured in Saturday’s matchday squad against Wigan Athletic as Charlton made it seven home wins on the spin.
Enslin, who joined the Addicks’ academy at U13 level and penned his first professional contract in the summer of 2023, has starred for Chris Lock’s title-chasing U21s this season, scoring eight goals and providing six assists in 19 starts.
Manager Nathan Jones said: “We’re delighted to secure Kai. He’s a player that’s come through the academy and shown that he can handle any situation. He’s been excelling for the U21s and he’s been included in our squads. He’s very good technically and he’s a really intelligent footballer who has real versatility. He’s one we’re really excited for.”
