MK ace eager to rise up league
CHUKS Aneke is striving to make up for lost time but, in order to realise his ambitions, he will need to help haul MK Dons out of their slump.
The 24-year-old, who joined the Dons in the summer of 2016, is finally enjoying an extended run of games in a white shirt, having been ravaged by a succession of major injuries during his time in Milton Keynes.
Indeed, ex-manager Karl Robinson signed the former England Under-19 international on a free transfer from Belgian top-flight side Zulte Waregem when he was still suffering with a knee injury.
And, in February, a ruptured hamstring, picked up in a game against Bradford at Valley Parade, sidelined him for six long months.
Skilful
Skilful and athletic midfielder Aneke, who has mostly been used as a forward this term, has played regularly since September, scoring five goals in his last 11 games before the weekend.
